From what I can tell, you don't even need this patch or the defconfig.
Nothing differs at this point from Glacier other than the DTS.  Since
U-Boot is your loader, it should be able to pass the different DTS to a
kernel that supports Cayonlands and have no issues.

If you do want to have explicit support for Arches, that's fine.  Look
at how Yosemite is supported.  It just reuses Bamboo.  You could do the
same.

Yes, I like this idea. I'll do this.

As you might have noticed, this has generated quite a bit of discussion
on whether this is the right approach or not.  If you can wait for a
week, we plan on talking it over at OLS.  Then I can give you a better
idea as to whether we're going to stick with this or use a different
approach.

Overall your patches are fairly clean, so you've done a good job so
far.  Have a little patience with us as we figure out the right way to
go :).
