It probably depends on how easy it is to add the gpiochips into  
devicetree. Being able to put the LED, buttons and fans in devicetree  
would make board-dt.c much more manageable. I started to look into it and  
wasn't immediately obvious, but will have a closer look.

Happy to resubmit, breaking it out into a board-dnskw.c though.
