I would prefer this solution over removing all the board support for AVR32
targets in U-Boot.

Sadly, I do not have the time to work with AVR32 in U-Boot.

If one were to prioritize, then keeping the atngw100 board would be great.

If the arch/avr32/lib/board.c is a redundant implementation of the generic
board.c file, then I am all for removing it and move to using the generic
