If two or three people (from the board manufacturer?) which are more 
familiar with the development board situation than you say "we don't 
need it" then this should be accepted. If nobody uses the older boards 
any more (and this is what I understood they said: "There were only 
few older boards, we know where they are and they are replaced by new 
ones") then there is absolutely no reason to pollute U-Boot with 
support for it. There is no need to add dead code to U-Boot.

We should trust the board maintainers somehow.

OMAP3 pin mux in kernel is totally broken.
