Hmm, it turns out we are still actively using some boards based on
Exynos4210 EVT0 SoCs. And since it seems unlikely the patches from
Tomasz [1] adding basic DT support for those will get merged for
3.10, it would be a bit inconvenient to remove the ATAGS support
now, leaving Exynos4210 Rev. 0 not supported at all.

Not sure what's others opinion on that, and what would be an advantage
of removing non-dt support for Exynos now, rather than in 3.11, vs. any
possible inconvenience and regressions this could cause.
