It may look correct, but I'll ask that you hang to it for a while as 
there is a desire to stop the addition of such board specific files to 
the kernel and move towards a solution such as device tree instead to 
represent those board details.

I think that Kirkwood is actually a good case for device tree as the 
differences between boards is really simple as it usually boils down to 
different GPIO usage and MPP assignments.  If someone would like to 
contribute to the DT effort on ARM then this would be a nice and easy 
target to convert over.
