Ok. My suggestion was to have something generic so that it matches the
fdt name set in config_distro_bootcmd.h
(${soc}-${board}${boardver}.dtb).

I especially like the naming in that standard, don't think board_rev
should be the SOC name.

This would also avoid redundancy in each board_late_init functions since
only the board name would need to be setup (and boardver in some cases
like wandboard).

Guillaume, please forget that point for now and just set your fdtfile
name in the config file. I'll update the board file later on.

Regards,
Gary
