Some time ago I spoke with our local Marvell representative... and he said that this
information cannot be retrieved by software.

So this makes me think, that we may be need an option for the platform data
passed from the board (assuming that board should know what SoC is installed).

Or a kernel command line parameter... something much like Eric proposed:
