    Revert "boardstatus/towiki: Declare southbridge=northbridge=cpu on SOCs"
    
    This reverts commit b845636ce67f6e7c96bf3fb3008738f596a5d5ce.
    This commit changed the board status script to describe all boards in
    terms of x86 terminology, such as CPU->southbridge->northbridge.
    
    This terminology does not apply to a number of SoCs, in which the
    buses are not connected via successive bridges, and as such it is
    misleading and misguided to describe ideas of southbridge and
    northbridge for these devices.
