Yes, good catch!

True, a more concise name there would be helpful. It is a bit of a
mixture since the LPC2478OEM is just the CPU board, and the 'Developer's
Kit' includes a baseboard with peripheral devices.

I'll come up with a better name for it, it will just require another
board registration and update of arch/arm/tools/mach-types :(
