Timings for the T25 version of seaboard, only one memory manufacturer
and timing table (two speeds).
There exist Seaboards with Tegra20 rather than Tegra25. Should we:
* Rename tegra-seaboard.dts to tegra-seaboard.dtsi
* Create tegra-seaboard-t20.dts and tegra-seaboard-t25.dts which include
?tegra-seaboard.dtsi, and add the EMC tables to the Tegra25 version only?
Honestly, T20 seaboards are deprecated around here, we've been
replacing all we have with T25 models and keeping T20 support around
is a pain. I'd rather just ignore them if we can.
It's fun how board prototype problems sping up in several similar
companies :-)

When I am confronted with similar problems I have taken the stance:

Q: is the board available outside my company esp to community
 people and other hackers who will be pissed if I screw it up?

If the answer is no, and there is no risk that anyone will blame you
for it on this mailinglist - delete it. Then handle the people that
yell at you internally and ask them to bring their board to the
junkpile.
Yeah, it's normally the way to do these things, with a transition
while the supply of newer hardware is still limited. It's a little more
complicated by the fact that I personally don't have control over what
Nvidia chooses to do internally. :)
