This in general looks like a complete backwards step rather than a forwards
step for multi-platform kernels.  All these drivers are not going to be
usable in multi-platform kernel images, because with mach/ includes they're
not going to be picking up the correct set of headers.

So all these SoC types might as well not be part of the multi-platform
project until they get their act together with their headers.
