Looks good overall. Two more small comments:

Instead of the explicit dependency for each board, I'd leave the surrounding
'if ARM_SINGLE_ARMV7M'. I think you had in v1.

Why the rename? I don't expect the new machines to have any notable
contents in a board file, if any at all, so just use one file for both.
I see the board-dt.c file refers to armv7m_restart, we can either put
that in an #ifdef, or find a way to make it the default for all armv7-m
platforms that don't provide any other restart method.
