The last-working N8x0 support (Linux-OMAP 2.6.30-rc8) required 1706 lines of 
platform data and initialization, split up into 6 files:
	590	N800 + i2c + FM + keyboard + light sensor + LED + LCD + temp + SPI + WiFi
		 + touchscreen + OneNAND
	47	N810
	175	USB
	362	MMC
	156	DSP
	376	camera

The largest OMAP2 single-board file is merely 689 lines (3430sdp).
N900/RX-51, totalling 863 lines itself, is split over 2 files.

I think 4 or 5 files with ~350 lines is more manageable than a single 1700-
line board file, especially when considering that parts depend on multiple 
configuration options (LCD, which turns out to be a 128-line file, depends on 
3 config options: N8x0, Blizzard, and MIPID).

Thoughts?
