It's misunderstanding here.
arch/x86/cpu/<SoC/CPU/platform>/
So, all of above either SoC or platform. A little mess.

So, we will put the code to tangier folder because Intel Tangier is SoC.
Platform is Intel Merrifield.

Yes.

Probably not. Intel MID covers more than one SoC/platform. This option
is x86 scope.

I dunno that U-Boot will run on the rest MID devices, but for sake of
logic and consistency it is not about Edison or Merrifield or Tangier.
