Well, then the upstream devices should remain the same for now, but only those which are upstream already. r7 tv dongle really is not identifiable from google, i am amazed that such boards are even accepted in u-boot upstream. > Upstream the boards.cfg doesn't seem to namespace devices in this way > BTW.

And if you put A20-SOM and A13-SOM as Olimex_ then at one point you would want all Olimex_ devices to sit together.
