Given my discussion with Linus over merging what's in my tree yesterday, the indication is that Linus is _only_ going to take git trees which remove code or "don't add tons of new lines", in other words only small growth is acceptable. Given that I don't see how new board files, which tend to be around the thousand-line mark could be added, which rather makes updating mach-types rather pointless.
