When booting a new board for the first time, the console is flooded with

I don't think we need this patch. In 2/2 you add the board type for
the board you have, so you shouldn't be getting any messages, and
this is unneeded.
I don't mind spamming people with all the messages, if people see
these messages, they have bigger problems than too many messages.
I guess this patch can be dropped, but whoever tries to improve the
support for the next new Octeon board will get annoyed by these same
messages...
I would hope that the "next new Octeon board" would have a bootloader
that supplies a device tree. That way most of this would never be used,
and there would be no messages.
