m68k: could the Apollo support possibly work?

From: Adrian Bunk

Nothing seems to set apollo_model (apollo_parse_bootinfo() has no caller).

Therefore trying to boot an Apollo machine seems to do:
arch/m68k/kernel/setup.c:setup_arch()
arch/m68k/apollo/config.c:config_apollo()
arch/m68k/apollo/config.c:dn_setup_model()
panic()

Do I miss anything?

Does anyone still have this hardware and tried booting it in recent years?

This problem already exists in kernel 2.4.0, and my gut feeling is
it's quite dead code I could remove.
