Looking at what's in dove, kirkwood, mv78xx0 and orion5x directories,
I don't see many board specific files. The only two I can see are
leds-*.h, which are shared with platform drivers in drivers/leds.
We have a place for this already - include/linux/platform_data.
So I don't think we need include/board/ at all.
I'd also suggest going against our current setup of not having "board/"
subdirectories in mach-*. Just name them board-foo.c.
