We already have a few boards running but right now we have to fight over
them. With the Walnuts we can build and test kernel changes without
holding up other people using the boards.
So far doing 2 builds has been ok, but it shouldn't be too much work to
get things working for both. I am not looking at the code now, but for
a 405 you just need to do a board header and a C file. The amount of
work these things do is small, but they all define the same functions.
That doesn't lend itself to working for more than one board. It should
be easy enough to put those functions in a structure do things dynamicaly.
