SDP, omap3evm, Beagle and RX51 are all good example.

But for PM, the board files only come into play for DVFS, where the
board files can configure which OPPs to make available to core code.
On the current PM branch, I did not test DVFS on Overo because
it seems like the SDRC settings need some testing/updating[1].

That's because that branch has no PM support.

No, I mentioned[1] that there was basic Overo testing done on the
latest 'pm' branch, not omap-2.6.30 branch.

Please checkout the branch named 'pm' and look there.

You still will not see omap-pm.h included because I did not
test DVFS on Overo since just going idle eventually leads
to memory corruption.

As I stated[1], SDRC settings need some validation on Overo
before DVFS can be tested.
