This is because the evalboard code is supposed to be common for
different modules which are based on different SoCs. As the pin
definitions for PXA270 and PXA3xx aren't common in the mfp-* header
files, these arrays need to be placed in the SoC-specific part.

There is a defconfig for *all* PXA3xx based machines, creating a hybrid
kernel to boot on all of them.

The idea of splitting the code is to have everything you can't change
with your own base board design (ie, the module itself) in one file and
all the rest in another.

The base board you're using is then passed to the kernel as runtime
parameter, so you can boot the same kernel in different envoronments.
The code for this parameter isn't there yet as there is only one user
so far, but it's trivial to add.

Have a look at the code in colibri-pxa270.c and colibri-pxa270-income.c.
The "income" is a custom base board for the pxa270 module, and what you
need is actually exactly the same approach, but for the pxa3xx.
Just add a core_param called colibri_pxa320_baseboard and then call the
appropriate pxa3xx_mfp_config() for the selected board.

No, due to the MFPs, it can't.
