Hmm, so unfortunately for Palmetto it's one of the primary ways to test
AST2400 stuff. Even if we retire it from OpenBMC CI it still has its
imprint in other open source projects such as QEMU. The AST2400 is
still used in some other products such as the Delta AHE50DC; it's
useful to keep things around that can exercise it.

I'll wait for some other confirmation on this one.
