Hi Russell,

I've just tried checking the machine_is_xxx() values in the kernel for
the list you posted and found just two that are actually being used:

arch/arm/mach-orion5x/ts209-setup.c:    if (machine_is_ts_x09())
arch/arm/mach-kirkwood/sheevaplug-setup.c:      if (machine_is_sheeva_esata())

Would it be possible to just fix these to use the correct form instead,
along with the respective mach-types change?
