No, but it depends on both how old the old fork is and what does /
doesn't exist upstream already.  If for example the SoC core already
exists in mainline, mainly use the old code base to move the "board"
specific part up.  If the SoC isn't there in mainline, you can probably
drop-in the old code base easily enough and get it building / linking,
and then clean it up.  But it really depends on just how old the fork
is.
