There are two remarks:

1. It looks like we still able to automatically add of_compatible and model imd tags.
Please see my message http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/barebox/2021-October/037412.html

2. I have no lowlevel.c board files on MIPS :(

Can we automaticaly generate of_compatible and model imd tags for most of the boards
and explicitly generate tags with IMD_USED_OF() just for selected boards?
