Will you have time to port them to DT, or would you rather focus on J-core systems ? Do those boards still boot a mainline kernel ? Dropping Renesas SH board files doesn't preclude anyone from moving them to DT, all the information will remain in the git history. Unless you plan to move to DT in a reasonably near future, I think dropping support for the CEU at least, if not the whole board files, could be a good option. -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart
