how will we call the Motorola i.MX processors in future?
Will it be "imx", "i.MX", "iMX" or MC9328MX{1,21,L}?
The original 2.4 Linux port was mx1ads which is definitely wrong: it is the name of the Motorola development board. Following the scheme of the other architectures and platforms I would vote for imx.
Following the scheme of the other architectures and platforms _and_ speaking as a hardware developer I would vote for MC9328MX... Or at least "iMX".
I vote for MC9328MX{1,21,L}.
Stop - we have to differentiate between the "machine type" (which is imx) and the _implementation_ (which could be something like M9328MXL) and the "board" (M83281ADS).
What about this:
"machine type" (arch/arm/mach-xxx in Linux nomenclature): imx "implementation" (asm/arm/arch-xxx/yyy.h): MC9328MXL "board": M83281ADS
