[GIT PULL] Delete two DaVinci boards

[GIT PULL] Delete two DaVinci boards

[Linus Walleij]

Hi SoC folks,

two patches deleting two unmainatined DaVinci boards.
The patches describe how I tried to update these boards
but there is no interest in that so now I am deleting them
as unused and unmaintained,

Please pull it in unless the DaVinci maintainers step in
and says no.

Yours,
Linus Wallej

I'll give them a few days to reply. In the discussion about deprecating
board files we already decided that only the DT-based davinci
machines are really needed, so I don't expect much objection to
removing them now, but otherwise they are going away in six months
anyway.

Your git tag description however needs a little more background,
I don't want to pull this and bypass the maintainers with a one-line
commit text. Can you update the tag to describe more about why
speeding up the removal is important to you?

Tag is updated like this:

The following changes since commit f2906aa863381afb0015a9eb7fefad885d4e5a56:

  ARM: davinci: Delete DM646x board files (2022-07-01 14:10:20 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Delete the two DaVinci board families DM644x and DM646x.

The reason why I'm pushing for this is that I have floated
patches to update the board files to use GPIO descriptors,
iterated and fixed bugs in the patches reported by reviewers
and build robots, and then the patches have not been merged.
See:

v6:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20201103000158.325147-1-linus.walleij@linaro.org/
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20210715191141.430307-3-linus.walleij@linaro.org/

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20220507124536.171930-2-linus.walleij@linaro.org/

I assume this is not getting merged because of lack of interest
in the platform, and such things happen. To save myself and
others from spending work hours on maintaining and modernizing
a platform that is not used, delete the board files.
