Altera Cyclone 5 board is very different board (big, rectangular, expensive) than EBV Socrates (small, circular, cheap) board. Different parts are used there, too, but same configuration of u-boot works on both. Nevertheless, printing wrong name confuses users.
Therefore this splits the configuration so that u-boot knows they are different. So far it is only used for correcting the puts, but there may be other uses in future.

Is there any way at run time to tell which board we are on?
Why do you care about board name in general?
We care for board names for a very long time in U-Boot and I'd like to keep this. I actually expect a sensible board name on any platform that I touch. The board name is an important extra information additional to the SoC name. So the question is the other way round - since when do we _not_ care about board names?
