In board-2.bin one board file can have multiple names, that was designed
exactly for cases like this. So the memory inrease is just the size of
string (plus few bytes for the TLV headers).

Dmitry is correct here. It's much better to have unique names instead
trying reuse the same names for different hardware. For example, if
later we actually need different board files then that's simple to do
just in board-2.bin.
