Thanks for the effort, I'll try to continue this work. You can add my
Tested-by for N8x0 bits.

I noticed one bug. If you disable MACH_NOKIA_N8X0 from .config, there
is a compilation failure:

arch/arm/mach-omap2/built-in.o: In function `omap2420_n8x0_legacy_init':
/home/aaro/git/linux/arch/arm/mach-omap2/pdata-quirks.c:76: undefined reference to `n8x0_legacy_init'
