We should only drop code where all boards in svn have been migrated to
i82801xx (and tested!) to be on the safe side. I.e. if there's an
ICH* southbridge which is no longer used by any board, drop it (but only
in that case). If this means we keep the old code around for the time being,
that's fine.

But of course we should

 - Make all _new_ boards work with i82801xx only (not the other ones)

 - Only port the i82801xx to v3 (not the other ones)
