Tuomas Tynkkynen has done that already and looking at the git log, he's
progressed quite far.

commit 36f4a8a485732da98e1fcf40945ecda305677579

    sd-image-armv7l-multiplatform.nix: Preliminary Raspberry Pi 2/3 support
    
    - RPi3 successfully gets to U-Boot, but then fails to boot the kernel
      due to a missing device tree file. This should get added to the 4.8
      kernel release once this patch is merged: 
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/6/1/841
    - RPi2 is not tested, but it should successfully boot the NixOS image.

Could not the device tree be taken from
raspberrypifw/boot/bcm2710-rpi-3-b.dtb?

I will build nixpkgs HEAD, lets see.

Tomas
