Thanks Cedric, this looks fine. Daniel mentioned updating the MAINTAINER file, but I think since you've removed the board then the entry can just be removed as you have since there is no separate MAINTAINER entry for the 405 CPU emulation. I think the note in the deprecated doc should be sufficient for that.
