This moves the sniper board from the lge to lg, in order to match the devicetree
vendor prefix already defined in the kernel.

39af3d8a0d sniper: Drop references to P970
There are various different boards with the same hardware sold as LG Optimus
Black, such as P970, P970g and KU5900. Since this port is functional for all
variants, it doesn't make sense to keep references to P970.

0257930ba0 LG Optimus Black (P970) codename sniper support
The LG Optimus Black (P970) codename sniper is a smartphone that was designed
and manufactured by LG Electronics (LGE) and released back in 2011.

It is using an OMAP3630 SoC GP version, which allows running U-Boot and the
U-Boot SPL from the ground up. This port is aimed at running an Android version
such as Replicant, the fully free Android distribution. However, support for
upstream Linux with device-tree and common GNU/Linux distros boot commands
could be added in the future.
