Another way would be to reorganize those directories upfront:

plat-orion -> mach-orion
mach-*/*.c -> mach/orion/*/*.c
mach-*/include/mach/* -> mach-orion/include/mach/*.h

and then go from there. The differences between the headers are fairly
small already, so that should be manageable.
Actually we could do a trivial move of all files into one directory at any
time, e.g. at the end of the merge window, to minimize conflicts with
other patches.

This is a semi-automated move of all plat-orion based machines into
a single mach-orion directory, and we could of course add the new stuff
in there as well. I've specifically tried to keep this move simple,
even if that means a lot of the easy cleanups for code that are mostly
identical are not done here. Cleanups after this could come one at
a time to reduce this duplication and simplify the platform.

Obvious next steps are to merge the various Makefile and Kconfig files
as well as all the headers, and to actually allow building stuff together.

Has this been tested in any way? If it boots on a few different
boards, i would say yes, lets do it.

If this is for the end of the merge window, we have about two weeks
for testing. Seems reasonable.
