I understand that, but I really want to finalize this chapter of the multiplatform work, it's been going for too long. It's not the only platform that has ATAG-based board files remaining, and I don't see how keeping it the remaining dove board files out of multiplatform is going to speed up their removal. > > I'm trying to get all ARMv7 platforms moved over to > > ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM > > It should be noted that orion5x is not an ARMv7. mv78xx0 as well. Yes, that would have been good to mention in the cover-letter, I assumed that everyone was aware of that. It would seem a bit silly to do one or two of these and not do the others at the same time.
