Siflower MIPS SoCs like SF19A2890 uses dual-core MIPS InterAptiv
processor, built-in GMAC, USB, dual-band WiFi and various other
peripherals.
Notably, it uses some ARM PLxxx peripherals, and ARM_AMBA is
selected for the drivers.
Most devices on the market with this chip come with 64M or less
DRAM. A kmalloc.h with malloc alignment override is added to
conserve memory, and a MACH_SIFLOWER_MIPS is created with reduced
features instead of using the generic kernel.

Hmm, why not using MIPS_GENERIC.

Thanks

Mainly to override MIPS_L1_CACHE_SHIFT and ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN.
This saves about 1MB of memory if I remember correctly.
