I agree it hasn't seen any significant development in a while but I'm
not the on able to take that decision.

A few weeks ago, I was telling Boris to let it not build for a while and
then remove it. You already went out of your way to make it work. Again,
feel free to send a patch removing avr32. I can only see a lot of
benefits for the Atmel ARM SoCs and the many cleanups that will follow.

If nobody complains about the 4.10 breakage, You'll have plenty of time
to remove it for 4.12
