Nothing seems to set apollo_model (apollo_parse_bootinfo() has no caller).

Therefore trying to boot an Apollo machine seems to do:
  arch/m68k/kernel/setup.c:setup_arch()
    arch/m68k/apollo/config.c:config_apollo()
      arch/m68k/apollo/config.c:dn_setup_model() 
        panic()

Do I miss anything?

Obviously it should be called from m68k_parse_bootinfo(), but there's no
MACH_IS_APOLLO case there. Strange...

Does anyone still have this hardware and tried booting it in recent years?

This problem already exists in kernel 2.4.0, and my gut feeling is 
it's quite dead code I could remove.

P2?
