Sorry to hijack a little bit this thread, but I got a few days ago a
88ap510/dove device so I was wondering if the work currently done on
kirkwood would allow us the same kernel binary at least on dove and
kirkwood ? [1] If so, when it'll be possible, will it be considered to
move the corresponding board setup from
arch/arm/mach-{dove,kirkwood,...} into a new directory, like what was
done on recently on imx ?

Thanks,
Arnaud

[1] I'm only talking of kirkwood and dove because it's only what I can
test. Of course, if it can be a single kernel binary for
dove/kirkwood/mv78xx0/orion5x, it'll be even better.
