Re-cycle the original board-generic file to support Device Tree
for every OMAP2+ variants.
Note: Since it is a completely new content in the existing file
I removed the original copyright.
I'd suggest just keeping it, maybe just update the comments
accordingly?
Do you mean keeping it and adding the comment? Or removing it and adding 
the comment?
That's because Copyrights in general just don't "disappear".
OK, maybe, but I thought it is weird to keep an old copyright just 
because we re-use an already existing file since the content is different.
And the meaning of the board-generic is still the same as originally,
that is do the booting based on board-specific data passed from
the bootloader like the comments say:
quoted
- * Code for generic OMAP2 board. Should work on many OMAP2 systems where
- * the bootloader passes the board-specific data to the kernel.
- * Do not put any board specific code to this file; create a new machine
- * type if you need custom low-level initializations.
+ * Support for generic OMAP2+ device tree boards.
Regards,
Benoit
