I wonder if any normalisation would be better in board_init_f() as
board_fit_config_name_match() is basically called for each possible 
board. Same for the tolower() loop below.

I am not sure k1-musepi-pro is a good default. The experience is that 
the Banana-Pi F3 (known as k1-x_deb1 in the vendor code) doesn't  have a 
product name defined in the TLV EEPROM and thus should probably be the 
default.

I am not sure that all the vendor product names will match the linux dtb 
names, so maybe just using a table to do the mapping would be better.  
Anyway, as long as the musepi-pro is the only one supported that should 
be fine.
