Ok, cool. Definitely not a candidate for removal based on what we've
seen then.

I would like to consolidate some of the defconfigs though, since
there are currently three of them and the platform supports multi-board
kernels. Anyone objecting to moving over to ks8695_defconfig as a superset
of the current three ones (acs5k{,_tiny}_defconfigs)? I'll post a patch
to NAK tomorrow. :)
