I also thought about that. But when looking at the product variants, its
clear that VF500 really contains only features, which are part of all
other Vybrids (VF3xx series excluded, but these series is not really
suitable for Linux due to lack of external memory). So vf500.dtsi would
always be a oneliner (#include <vf.dtsi>).

Also I disliked this idea because of the somewhat unclear naming
(vf.dtsi? vfxxx.dtsi?)
