A crude form of this is what I had done in my patch-set. OMAP4 SDP and
OMAP4 Panda Makefiles were identical because there was no board
specific content. So, I moved them into an omap4.mk and rules.mk and
included these two files from the board level Makefiles. But Wolfgang
apparently didn't like this because I was having board level Makefile
despite not having any board specific content.
I still believe that extending this to more granular re-usable
components such as mmc.mk, nand.mk, console.mk, fat.mk etc may be a
less disruptive but effective solution.

Agree.
