Agree, that may be overhead in some cases. But there would be also
cases where printing out a machine name would be informative. CM5200
is one such example, there are several variants of the hw and platform
name is too generic.

Other situation would be adding compatible='mpc5200-generic' platform
where platform name would not provide any details.
