I think there is benefit in throwing out some unused s3c64xx boards
even earlier, as this would simplify some treewide cleanups that have to
touch every board file, and potentially let us drop some peripheral
device drivers that have no other users and no DT probing.
Ten boards is of course not a lot, but it's still about a third of the
board files I have currently marked as sticking around past early
2023.
