Dear Ezequiel Garcia,

Marvell has always said they are not interested in having Z1 supported
in mainline, except as a first step to start getting the 375 support in
mainline. I have been waiting for everyone of us to have access to 375
A0 platforms, which is now the case. So I believe we can probably get
rid of the 375 Z1 support entirely.

It saddens me to know that a shiny development board in the office will
no longer be useful for anything else but its own physical beauty, but
I believe that's a normal retirement strategy for a very early
development platform :-)

I'm afraid I have news for you. Even now, the board is almost unusable,
as the mvpp2 network driver only supports A0 (Z1 support was never even
planned).

So you have a NAS development board without network... sounds pretty
useless to me :)

Who needs network these days? :-)

Well, joke aside, I'm fine with seeing the Armada 375 Z1 support go
away.
