There are plenty of boards that have no public documentation. Pretty
much all phones and laptops are like that. We even have a whole
architecture that only runs on a few machines in a single person's
basement [*] :-) The kernel has never required public schematics for
boards, SoCs or IP cores.

[*] A slight exageration possibly, but that's how I heard arch/alpha/
    being described at the maintainers summit.
