Hm... I expect there will be little chance to see MAarvell IP blocks
in non-Marvell SoCs, so this should work indeed. On the other hand,
why not chose a name that works for other CPUs / SoCs as well. [So on
second thought maybe your "soc.h" was not that bad a name.]
Let's see what others suggest.

Do we need this "kirkwood_" or "marvell_" prefix at all? Where e4lse
do we expect to see for example "egiga_" show up?
We do not use "intel_e1000_..." or "realtek_rtl8139_..." etc. either,
Just drop that part. Nobody will miss it.
Best regards,
