Hi, Alexander,

My plan after all my related patches are merged is to remove all
entries for legacy board files that are not used by the kernel (i.e.:
boards that were removed, never in mainline, or converted to DT
booting). This would reduce mach-types from 579 to 28 entries and
would allow it to be used as a list of non-DT boards remaining in the
kernel. The last time mach-types was similarly filtered was in 2016.
