I'd really like to keep these separate.
- firefly-rk3288 is one board
- firefly-rk3288-reload is a completely different som+baseboard

That they both have the "firefly" in the name is really more based on the
company being named firefly :-) , but are not an indication that they
are similar boards.

OK, i think the real similar part is the core board and firefly. how
about reuse the
firefly code in the core board?

I would disagree and remember having a similar discussion when the reload-
support was initially submitted. Please keep in mind that the firefly-
reload is a som+baseboard combination, so somebody could (or maybe
already has) create a completely different baseboard for the som that
does not have any similarities with the original firefly.
The previous firefly being a real single board.

We also don't combine rock2 and firefly and other boards following the
general rk3288 design guidelines :-) and the original firefly and reload are
very different boards if you look at them.
