Hello! I would like to let you know that I have there patch series which
creates one generic machine descriptor for all P2 boards:
https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/20230218111405.27688-1-p...@kernel.org/

Basically it allows any P2 board to boot one universal kernel binary
just with correct DTS file. After P2 is merged I was thinking about
looking at P1 boards too.

So I would suggest to do some "big" removal of older code after this is
merged, so I do not have to rebase again my patch series which is
basically cleanup and make maintenance easier.

I understand that removing old machine descriptions with board code for
old boards which nobody use and nobody wants to maintain is logical
step.

But if something like generic machine descriptor for P1 happens too
(like I did for P2 in above patch series), it would mean that the only
board specific information would be stored in DTS files.
And does it make sense to remove just old DTS files? Are there any
maintenance with them? (Do not take it wrong, just I'm asking)
