I'd suggest just keeping it, maybe just update the comments
accordingly?

That's because Copyrights in general just don't "disappear".

And the meaning of the board-generic is still the same as originally,
that is do the booting based on board-specific data passed from
the bootloader like the comments say:

> - * Code for generic OMAP2 board. Should work on many OMAP2 systems where
> - * the bootloader passes the board-specific data to the kernel.
> - * Do not put any board specific code to this file; create a new machine
> - * type if you need custom low-level initializations.
> + * Support for generic OMAP2+ device tree boards.

Regards,

Tony
