Wolfgang, Marek Vasut, and I discussed this here [1].  To summarize, by
declaring non-mainlined mach_types in the respective board config, an
error will be thrown at compile time after mach-types.h is updated to
include the mach_type.

The other idea is to have a separate file, say mach-types-local.h where
all non-mainlined mach-types would be defined.

Thoughts?  I can do whichever.

thx,

Jason.
