So I talked with rmk about this quickly and the reduced list, which is
what the kernel uses and I also wish to use is the reduced list of
MACH_TYPE_xxx and the short version is that the reduced list only
includes the MACH_TYPE_xxx values that were used in mainline rather than
just registered.  Perhaps instead of saying "officially used" I should
make it clearer that it means used in the upstream linux kernel?
