While they are physically similar, just as the mpc and the imx are physically
similar, the imx driver has a lot of imx'isms, device tree and OF
dependencies that aren't supported by the m68k/nommu. I would expect the
changes needed tantamount to having separate drivers. Plus I have no way of
testing what impact any changes I made had on the imx functionality, so I
expect I would end up mostly just annoying the imx developers.
