Well, we had a similar discussion for sunxi, and the outcome was that
serial number could be obtained from other places on other devices (e.g.
EEPROM) or be calculated from the dieid bits in a different way, so I
prefer to keep this board-specific instead of omap3-generic for now.

This merely matches what is done on Android OMAP devices, but one could
do it another way, too.

What do you think?
