It's an omap3 variant and it's still waiting for the clock patches 
that now unfortunately have a dependency to the the omap clock
move to drivers/clk. Aida Mynzhasova posted some patches few months
ago here:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-omap/msg96341.html

Since it's an omap3 variant, we should be able to make it usable
quite easily, so no need to remove the whole support at least
yet. Plus it seems to be an active TI part, so people are still it.

But it's definitely not a show stopper for making omap3 to boot in
device tree only mode.

Tony
