I don't have any of the "specific" platforms that still work. So
although I build test for them, I only boot test a generic kernel.
So they may be broken for all I know.  If it makes your life easier
then by all means delete them.

I ran into someone recently (in the past year) that was still using SKI.
If they make a noise here and want to keep it, then we should probably
do so, otherwise I won't be sad if you send a patch to delete it.
