Peter,

You could be right here, from this patch perspective, this change doesn't make sense.

But at the first place I am quite not sure, why this has been named as
OMAP4430_? Vs some macros are named as OMAP4_.

So first we need to understand why it has been named this way,
may be "Paul Walmsley" can comment on this. He is original author of this 
file.

Thanks,
Vaibhav
