I'm wondering about the name board. So far, the code you have moved
into ocelot_board has nothing to do with the board as such. This is
not a GPIO used to reset the switch, it is not a regulator, etc. It is
all internal to the device, but just differs per family. Maybe you can
think of a better name?
