Please put generic 440 code in northbridge/, and not in mainboard/440-base/
Having two northbridge directories for the same northbridge sounds complex.
Full ack. Northbridge-specific code belongs in src/northbridge/*.
However, this is not northbridge specific code. It's more like "common code which somewhat similar mainboards share". Theoretically this could include even more (non-440BX) boards which are also similar enough, but for now I concentrated on 440BX boards.
If we later add non-440bx boards (e.g. 430TX or i810 or something) to the same framework, we might rename it to xyz-base (but I have no idea what a good name for xyz would be ;-)
Also, I'm a bit undecided if it should be src/mainboard/common/i440bx-base or src/mainboard/i440bx-base (i.e. put the "base" code parts in an extra directory or not). Opinions?
