Taking a closer look at things, it appears that various (non-omap3)
boards are grabbing the Die ID bits on their own and then calling those
functions (usb_fake_mac_from_die_id, usb_set_serial_num_from_die_id).

IMHO, we should have a common naming scheme for the function to get the
dieid (omap_dieid), define that for each omap platform and have it
called in omap-common code (with one function for the serial number and
one for the fake mac), just like what I did with omap_sys_boot_device.

Then, each board would simply call those functions directly, without
having to care about how to obtain the die id bits.

This seems like a series that would deserve to live on its own, so I
suggest that you merge Optimus Black support as-is for now and I'll
submit another series to implement that behaviour on top.

What do you think?
