A peach?? For me it is either a fruit or a princess, so I am puzzled!

Well about the issue, we patch the device tree for the i2c quirk only for
the openblock AX3. If I remember well it was because the device tree was already
written for this board before we found there was an issue with the A0 version of the
CPU. The rule was that for new boards then they have to set the marvell,mv78230-a0-i2c
compatible string. I also didn't expect that we found "new" product using the A0 version.

We have 3 options now:

- remove the check on the openblock AX3 board and always try to apply the quirck for A0 version
- add a check for this new board in the mvebu_dt_init function
- let the compatible string marvell,mv78230-a0-i2c in this dts

I would prefer the option 1 but I fear that Arnd would prefer the 2 other options.
