I hate to see it go... but on the other hand my hate isn't for it leaving, but that the support for it in -current has decayed too much

Why not just get rid of the arm_install_uboot_bbb() call here, and remove the function entirely? It is not used anywhere else.

Indeed, will do that tomorow.

Yes, it's better to remove everything BBB related in release/ in one commit. Also easier if someone wants to work on this platform to revert only 1 or 2 commits

Remove arm_install_uboot_bbb too
