Agree that doc/ is in a bad state - nevertheless we should try to move
on to the right direction. As Breno says, this is not related to a
single board.  doc/README.soc was done years ago, without generating
documentation. I think we should go away from this model. I see also
very positive the switch to rst for any i.MX documentation.
