Today I decided to do my homework & check GPL sources of EA9500 fw.

I grepped them for panamera and I found this name in few files:
./checkpatches
./src/mod_bdutil/platform/brcm/usbhub.h
./src/mod_bdutil/platform/brcm/buttons.h
./src/mod_bdutil/platform/brcm/usbhub.c
./src/mod_bdutil/platform/brcm/leds_panamera.c
./src/mod_bdutil/platform/brcm/leds.c
./src/mod_bdutil/bdutil.h.panamera
./src/mod_bdutil/Makefile.panamera

Unfortunately all these results aren't very clear for getting board
name of EA9500. I checked them and panamera is only one of listed
boards there. E.g. checkpatches contains following lines:
# patched by BRCM for Panamera
# patched by BRCM for F70
# patched by BRCM for Pinnacles
# patched by BRCM for EA9200

So EA9500 board name could be any of above.

Similarly there are following Makefiles in EA9500 GPL package:
Makefile.audi
Makefile.bentley
Makefile.blk-mamba
Makefile.carrera
Makefile.esprit
Makefile.f70
Makefile.focus
Makefile.honda
Makefile.impala
Makefile.lemans
Makefile.mamba
Makefile.panamera
Makefile.pub
Makefile.r8
Makefile.spyder
Makefile.taurus
Makefile.viper
Makefile.viperuivm
Makefile.wraith

So again, any of these name could be EA9500 board name.

Will you be so generous to tell us how did you get EA9500 board name
by just looking at GPL sources?
