Nope. It is related to only Medfield / Clovertrail platforms.

There are other (MID) platforms that may / might utilize this driver
in the future.

I.o.w. we probably can remove the oldest stuff in the driver WRT above
mentioned platforms, but leave the driver for the rest.
I wouldn't be in a hurry with this though, display drivers are easy to
remove, but really hard to get back on velocity after that.
