If there are people who have the boards, I'd be inclined to make the mainline kernel usable for them. Doing some renames or adding compatibles down the road, if the SoC is actually rebranded, is not a big deal. I'll leave it up to you guys as to what to do - it's only -rc4 today, so there's no impending doom.
