What's the impact?  So far it seems to me that there are pretty heavy
changes to lots of global code anyway, so we can then enable it for
all boards as well. Otherwise we just add a lot of #ifdef's and make
the code even harder to read and to understand.  Which does not mean
that I understood what you are doing :-(

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
