Thank you! I haven't reviewed this yet, but if others do before I get
to it I'm happy to go with their opinions. I've been wanting to get
this removed for a long time because cleaning out stuff that's not
used/useful makes it easier to see what needs to be done for sh2/3/4
(rest of DT conversion, mmu support for j-core).
