I would be ok if we would only support TO3 and the kernel wouldn't boot on TO2 hardware, but AIUI the kernel will boot just fine and turn on NEON on TO2 such as Babbage 2.x, so I'm a bit scared by just release noting it.
Another solution is that we could perhaps add code in the board init function to check the cpu revision and if NEON was enabled, then stop booting.
This is what the patch would look like (not-even compile tested)
