Nice idea, thank you!

A few notes on categorization below.

Or maybe bcm instead of broadcom. Not sure which is preferred by
Broadcom people.

Arguably part of Marvell.

Why edac?
The most obvious name I can see here is calxeda.

Freescale has been part of NXP for a while, so it might make sense to
merge the freescale and nxp directories. I can't speak for
NXP-the-company, so that's just my view as a bystander.

The Kirkwood family should probably be sorted into Marvell.

The Layerscape family is part of Freescale/NXP.

>  create mode 120000 arch/arm/boot/dts/nxp/armv7-m.dtsi

armv7-m.dtsi is a bit confusing, because it contains a few devices at
fixed addresses, so it looks vendor-specific at a first glance into the
file. However, if it is actually as vendor-neutral as the name implies,
I think it should live dts/ directly, rather than in vendor
subdirectories.

>  rename arch/arm/boot/dts/{ => nxp}/lpc18xx.dtsi (100%)

Here we have the NXP LPCxxxx family, which is AFAIK unrelated to the
i.MX family (and thus the bulk of the Freescale legacy).

>  create mode 100644 arch/arm/boot/dts/vybrid/Makefile

Vybrid is another chip family of NXP, with a good deal of Freescale
legacy in it as evidenced by the "fsl," prefix in the devicetrees.
