There is no need to have a different machine type for Seagate DockStars.
Remove it.

Be aware, this patch requires a change in the bootloader to feed the
same machine type to the kernel as used for Marvell SheevaPlugs.

This is therefore not a good idea to do this.

The original bootloader isn't affected at all, only already modified ones which are using the machine type dockstar. And I don't think this are that many because that machine type was only supported for one or two revisions of U-Boot.
