i understand why you are doing this but I don't support this. There are users
out there using those and as such NXP should keep those supported. We use
same rule for i.MX and what we do is moving the old BSP machines for
mainline kernel/u-boot so people has at least an upgrade path.
[Liu Ting-B28495] I understand your points. But these boards are not tested 
with the latest kernel/u-boot/fm-ucode/qe-ucode/etc.
We want to remove them to avoid confusion.

It is easy to add back the machine configuration files. The recipes for 
kernel/u-boot/etc. should be rolled back to the previous revision on which 
these boards are supported too. Anyway, this need effort to verify, including 
build and function.
I am not the owner of those machines, on the BSP, so I cannot block
the removal. For the i.MX I always preferred to move the machines for
the mainline kernel/u-boot and keep them around so people could use
and improve them. This was a way to empower the community and provide
a long term solution for our users.

Once things stabilize, I would like to patch back in support for the p1010rdb and t1040rdb-64b. Let me know if there is an objection to this.
