Is this really a good idea? You moved board-specific code (`everything related
to one board in a single dir') into one directory? So for a new port, you now
have to add a arch/mips/<board>/ directory, and add files to arch/mips/pci/.

I agree that extracting common parts and cleaning up the code is a good idea,
though.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
