Yeah, it touched "early" devices after all...

I referred to "All my qemu boot tests" when saying everywhere.

I don't have any relevant HW - the idea for this patch is to stop
compiling for everyone a bunch of code that's only used by one largely
irrelevant architecture and free the namespace for a generic early
platform drivers implementation.

How are you creating your SH qemu images? I'm seeing there's something
in buildroot for superh - maybe I'll be able to build something
useful.
