#11348: platform detection should come from device tree

before the device tree information was available from OFW on 1.75, board
and platform identification was added to the EC driver as a stop-gap.
this happens relatively late, however, and the information should really
come from the firmware.
the code in drivers/misc/olpc-ec-1-75.c:platform_detect(), which populates
olpc_platform_info, should all go away.
