Agreed. I don't think this file can be made generic though - but I'm
not completely sure.

Right - this means the file is not used, and it should be removed.

Thanks for the review Uwe. You found a lot of (IMHO) important issues
in the patch.

It would be great if all of these issues could be investigated and
fixed now that the patch has been committed already.

(Or we could decide that we don't care at all about the state or
quality of v2 but then code will rot and we will lose support for
more boards - like we did with v1. Let's not repeat that mistake.)

Thanks!
