They are different boards with same SoC (AM33xx). So they both are true for
machine_is_am33xx().

We have a means to detect the type of board but in arch/arm/mach-omap2/ 
board file. However, I believe it is not recommended to call boards api
inside drivers.

Can you give me more info about the "custom option" you suggested?
