You are moving mach-mx25 into mach-imx, will do the same for mx3, and
thinking about the same for mx5. But you are asking me to move mx28
out of mach-imx.  This only makes sense for me if you think mx28 will
not go into mach-imx forever.  Are you sure about this? Otherwise we
are doing something really bothering ourselves.
