The support was for this was mainlined 13 years ago, in v2.6.25
[0e0fffe88767] just around the ppc --> powerpc migration.
I believe the board was introduced a year or two before that, so it
is roughly a 15 year old platform - with the CPU speed and memory size
that was typical for that era.
I haven't had one of these boards for several years, and availability
was discontinued several years before that.
Given that, there is no point in adding a burden to testing coverage
that builds all possible defconfigs, so it makes sense to remove it.
Of course it will remain in the git history forever, for anyone who
happens to find a functional board and wants to tinker with it.

By moving the two JP12 jumpers 90 degrees, and switching the
setting of SW2.8, the sbc8548 can be configured to boot off
the alternate 64MB SODIMM, which when populated with u-boot
can be a handy recovery option, in case the u-boot in the
8MB soldered on flash gets corrupted. Here we add an alternate
dts file to match that configuration.
To better highlight the differences, the output from the u-boot
"fli" command is shown for the normal configuration and then
the alternate configuration.
