That all makes sense, I think the commit message just seemed to say
something else.

Maybe more like:

NAND and TWSI0 have only one valid pin control choice on Kirkwood,
move those definitions into the common dtsi.

For UART0/1 and SPI, which have two choices, move the definition that
is used in the majority of the board files into the common dtsi.
Board files that are different will override.

Jason
