Let's drop the last two remaining omap3 legacy boot board files. Let's only use the device tree based booting known to work for these two boards. We still have two omap3 boards booting in legacy mode in addition to device tree based booting. All the other ten or so omap2+ SoCs have been booting using device tree mode only for years now. This has allowed us to get rid of quite a bit of arch/arm/mach-omap2 related platform init code in favor of dts and driver changes. Pretty much the only remaining known users for omap3 legacy boot board files are Kevin's and Russell's boot test systems, and N900 kernel tree maintained by Pali and Ivaylo. And all of them are also supporting the device tree based booting. The legacy booting mode has been kept around mostly to verify against regressions. As there is still a slim chance of possible other uses of the mainline kernel for these boards, let's just drop the board files for v4.8, and let's not touch the related platform init code until around v4.9 time if no issues are found. This makes it trivial for us to add back the board files with a simple revert.

Hi! I just quickly looked at N900 status matrix https://elinux.org/N900 and there is still one thing not finished in DT: It is slot-name for omap_hsmmc driver. So switch from legacy board code to DT is regression. -- Pali Roh?r pali.rohar at gmail.com
