Subject: OMAP2430 SDP boot broken after Linus' rmk merge

Having worked out how to get around the MMC ordering issue without having
to go and re-tweak it should it change again in the future, I've added
the SDP back into the build.

... if you know how to configure stuff so it works.  It seems that the
reason it hasn't been working, and the displays have been remaining
blank is because I had no idea that CONFIG_PWM and CONFIG_PWM_TWL were
required.  I've now added those to the config seed, so hopefully they
should start working now.  Only taken... what... two years to find that
out!
