Really I do not know. This is clearly a workaround for the first MX.51
version (TO1), and it makes no sense for actual processor's revision. I
do not know if there are mx51evk with this revision on board, but if
there are we should maintain this code for compatibility reason.

I think so. If we were able to do everything on runtime, then we could
proceed removing all #ifdef stuff. However, we need the #ifdef in the
header files to select the different internal structures between MX.51
and MX.53.
