want to confirm that include/configs/xilinx_zynqmp*.h files seem unused

  been a while since i wandered through the innards of u-boot so it's
possible this is a silly question.

  was just placed on a project that involves a xilinx zynqmp-based
board, and need to upgrade the version of u-boot that's currently
being used. as part of my perusal, i did a quick grep to see what
existing boards were doing with any zynqmp-related header files, so i
did this from the top of the current tree:

$ grep -r "include.*xilinx_zynqmp.*\.h" *
include/configs/xilinx_zynqmp_mini.h:#include <configs/xilinx_zynqmp.h>
include/configs/xilinx_zynqmp_mini_emmc.h:#include <configs/xilinx_zynqmp_mini.h>
include/configs/xilinx_zynqmp_mini_qspi.h:#include <configs/xilinx_zynqmp_mini.h>
include/configs/xilinx_zynqmp_mini_nand.h:#include <configs/xilinx_zynqmp_mini.h>
$

  i'm aware of the ongoing migration of content from
include/configs/*.h files to defconfig files, so the above seems to
suggest, given the circular inclusion of those header files with no
one else including them, that those files are no longer referenced.

  my guess is that all that content was migrated to defconfigs but the
header files were simply left there. is that a fair conclusion, or
might there be something far more subtle i'm overlooking here?
