I agree, but this code adds an option to pass boot params pointer to
board descriptor.
Just two lines above the intended change, there is a mach_type
initialization based on the definition of CONFIG_MACH_TYPE. Moreover,
the lib/board.c exists in arch/arm as of today which means that it can
contain all the stuff common for arm boards
If I am right, the patch should also be OK
