In any case, what we should be doing here as well is moving the headers
included by drivers for platform data out of the arch/arm/mach/ subtrees
and into include/linux/platform_data.  That will substantially reduce the
amount of mach/ headers to deal with.

I've just looked at the {mach,plat}/*.h files that get included in ARM
specific drivers. Out of the 342 header files that get used in this way,
I found 93 that are practically just platform data, and a few that
are platform_data mixed with something else.

How about I move all the pure platform data definition files now and
rebase the other patches on top of that. Here is a list of suggested
file names in include/linux/platform_data/:

I've just scripted this and am running my build testsuite over it now.

Please let me know what you think about it.

This certainly looks like a step in the right direction, thanks for doing
this.
