Unfortunately Armada SoCs is more that just these SoC!

Have a look on Documentation/arm/Marvell/README to see how the Marvell
marketing guys had been creative :)

Some kirkwood are called Armada 300 and Armada 310.
The Dove is also called Armada 510.
Some PXA are called Armada too such as Armada 168 or Armada 610.
And finally the Berlin also use Aramda as code name: Armada 1000 or
Aramda 1500
