I have the ax3/4 version apparently.

So, we can have the following possible schemes:

 + openblocks-ax3.dtsi
   + openblocks-ax3-2.dts
   + openblocks-ax3-4.dts

But I am not sure if using a .dtsi to factorize things common between
multiple boards is OK. Or we can do:

 + openblocks-ax3-2.dts
   + openblocks-ax3-4.dts

With openblocks-ax3-4.dts being the simple addition of PCIe slot + more
RAM. That said, I don't have the ax3/2 board anyway, so should we plan
for something that nobody can test at the moment, or wait for someone
to get a ax3/2 board, and therefore be able to do the testing? I think
I prefer to submit dts files that are know to work and have been tested
on hardware that we have.

Best regards,

Thomas
