Hello,

I would like to make PLATFORM a requirement on armv6 as I have already =
enabled it on most armv6 kernels. The old PLATFORM_SMP and MULTIDELAY =
options have already been merged with this in preparation for it being =
on by default.

I have updated most of the kernel configurations built under the =
universe target, however the Marvell configs still need to be updated. =
Unfortunately they are a little more complex than the other SoCs, and as =
I don=E2=80=99t have a setup to test any changes I would like help to =
update this code.

The advantage of using PLATFORM is it will allow us to remove the build =
time checks for each SoC. This will help add the Marvell code, along =
with the other ARMv7+ kernels, to be integrated into the GENERIC config, =
easing future maintenance.

Andrew=
