    ARM: OMAP2+: Drop legacy board file for LDP · e92fc4f0

    Let's drop the last two remaining omap3 legacy boot board files.
    Let's only use the device tree based booting known to work for
    these two boards.
    
    We still have two omap3 boards booting in legacy mode in addition
    to device tree based booting. All the other ten or so omap2+ SoCs
    have been booting using device tree mode only for years now. This
    has allowed us to get rid of quite a bit of arch/arm/mach-omap2
    related platform init code in favor of dts and driver changes.
    
    Pretty much the only remaining known users for omap3 legacy boot
    board files are Kevin's and Russell's boot test systems, and N900
    kernel tree maintained by Pali and Ivaylo. And all of them are
    also supporting the device tree based booting. The legacy booting
    mode has been kept around mostly to verify against regressions.
    
    As there is still a slim chance of possible other uses of the
    mainline kernel for these boards, let's just drop the board
    files for v4.8, and let's not touch the related platform init
    code until around v4.9 time if no issues are found. This makes
    it trivial for us to add back the board files with a simple revert.
