Yes, this is because they are just not connected on sb-t35.

The concept of having CPU board and base (mother) board implies
that our customers build a base board of their own.
This way, the customer decides what to do with those lines.
cm-t3x just makes them available on the connector, while
neither sb-t35, nor cb-t3 uses them.

Ok. So what do you think, is it fine to have something like:
omap3-cm-t3x.dtsi		- common to cm-t3x cpu boards
omap3-cm-t3x30.dtsi		- common to cm-t3730 and cm-t3530
omap3-cm-t3730.dtsi		- cm-t3730 specific
omap3-cm-t3530.dtsi		- cm-t3530 specific
omap3-cm-t3517.dtsi		- cm-t3517 specific
omap3-sb-t35.dtsi		- sb-t35 specific
omap3-cb-t3.dtsi		- cb-t3 specific
omap3-sbc-t3730-256mb.dts	- sb-t35 with cm-t3730 and 256MB memory size
omap3-sbc-t3730-128mb.dts	- sb-t35 with cm-t3730 and 128MB memory size
omap3-sbc-t3730-64mb.dts	- sb-t35 with cm-t3730 and 64MB memory size
omap3-sbc-t3530-256mb.dts	- sb-t35 with cm-t3530 and 256MB memory size
omap3-sbc-t3530-128mb.dts	- sb-t35 with cm-t3530 and 128MB memory size
omap3-sbc-t3530-64mb.dts	- sb-t35 with cm-t3530 and 64MB memory size
omap3-sbc-t3517-256mb.dts	- sb-t35 with cm-t3517 and 256MB memory size
omap3-sbc-t3517-128mb.dts	- sb-t35 with cm-t3517 and 128MB memory size
omap3-em-t3730-256mb.dts	- cb-t3 with cm-t3730 and 256MB memory size
omap3-em-t3730-128mb.dts	- cb-t3 with cm-t3730 and 128MB memory size
omap3-em-t3730-64mb.dts		- cb-t3 with cm-t3730 and 64MB memory size
omap3-em-t3530-256mb.dts	- cb-t3 with cm-t3530 and 256MB memory size
omap3-em-t3530-128mb.dts	- cb-t3 with cm-t3530 and 128MB memory size
omap3-em-t3530-64mb.dts		- cb-t3 with cm-t3530 and 64MB memory size

or is it too much... ;-)))
The above gives the full coverage of the 2x3 boards.

I think we can drop the different memory sizes and
let boot loader adjust the blob. This will make the list shorter:
omap3-cm-t3x.dtsi	- common to cm-t3x cpu boards
omap3-cm-t3x30.dtsi	- common to cm-t3730 and cm-t3530
omap3-cm-t3730.dtsi	- cm-t3730 specific
omap3-cm-t3530.dtsi	- cm-t3530 specific
omap3-cm-t3517.dtsi	- cm-t3517 specific
omap3-sb-t35.dtsi	- sb-t35 specific
omap3-cb-t3.dtsi	- cb-t3 specific
omap3-sbc-t3730.dts	- sb-t35 with cm-t3730 and default memory size
omap3-sbc-t3530.dts	- sb-t35 with cm-t3530 and default memory size
omap3-sbc-t3517.dts	- sb-t35 with cm-t3517 and default memory size
omap3-em-t3730.dts	- cb-t3 with cm-t3730 and default memory size
omap3-em-t3530.dts	- cb-t3 with cm-t3530 and default memory size

So what do you think?

They are routed to the connector of the base board and then...
just not connected...
Interesting, how that can make the MMC1 faster? Are you sure?

Yes, but only on cm-t3730 (and actually starting from revision 1.2),
not cm-t3530...

The same as with MMC1, they are routed to the connector and
not routed at all on sb-t35.
