In this series we introduce a new board type: the Nanometrics Helios hardware
platform v1. Like the other da850/omapl138 boards in arch/arm/mach-davinci
it shares lots of common data definitions. For example boot_params location
and uart config are common to this new board and to the existing da850/omapl138
boards in the tree.

To combat to potential platform-data ARM bloat that we would otherwise add
with the introduction of the new board type we propose the creation of a
da850-reference module shared among the boards. The general idea is that the
da850evm is a 'reference implementation' and as such many of the boards do
re-use this reference so they can/should share the data since builds are headed
towards multi-machine.

We first extract board setup data that is common to several of the omapl138/
da850 boards in 1,2,3,4. Then the new board type is introduced in 5.

Boot-tested this series on-top of branch master @
a0cb2d282a57fd33ae57af2f2092974c82111b77 in
git://gitorious.org/linux-davinci/linux-davinci.git on da850evm and heliosv1
hardware.
