Yes, we say 'SMDK board blah blah' so it can be no big deal, but I don't
want to make a confusion between CONFIG_MACH_XXX and mach-xxx.c yet even
though there is a similar situation of arch/arm/mach-xxx/ directory and
CONFIG_ARCH_XXX. In addition, the machine_is_xxx() is used to distinguish
board in the kernel.

Anyway, I think, if to use board-xxx.c is required, we can change it all at
once and let me think again.

Thanks.

Best regards,
Kgene.
