So how should we > handle this? Well, I think we cannot check for each update of this file which board are dropped - this requires too much effort. The way we currently use (Linux is the master of this file, and we update it directly from the kernel) is IMHO the right way to get it in sync. Maybe the best way, if you want to have your board maintained in u-boot but not in kernel (however, why ?) is to define your MACH in the board configuration file.
