The Keystone2 processors do include the C66x DSP. But the SoCs being
targeted with this patch are the ARM + DSP variants. Using 66AK2x is
more appropriate.

Also, DA8xx includes DA830 which is pin-compatible with AM17x. So you
can shorten the list of supported processors to DA8xx/66AK2x.

Looks good to me, apart from the minor change above.
