It seems to me that meson-gxl.dtsi is almost identicial to
meson-gxbb.dtsi.  I think we should create another .dtsi for all the
common parts.  Something like meson-gx-common.dtsi, which is included
by meson-gxbb.dtsi and meson-gxl.dtsi

Also, the GXL family has both the S905x and S905D SoCs, so we may need
meson-gxl-s905x.dtsi and meson-gxl-s905d.dtsi but I'm not sure of the
full set of differences between those, so we can save that for later.

But, I do think the board files should probably have the SoC name.  So
they would look something like: meson-gxl-s905x-p212.dts (which you
have) and meson-gxl-s905d-p230.dts (which I have.)
