If this is the consensus, then I'll add to my todo list removal of 
ARCH_EXYNOS, ARCH_S3C, ARCH_S5P (and later OMAP, QCOM, NXP and so on) 
from all drivers. Blindly. Because DWC Exynos is the same as watchdog, 
clocksource timer, PWM, GPIO/pinctrl

Are everyone okay with that?

I remember also someone from Suse wanted the opposite - be sure that 
none of SoC related options appear for his choices, when he configures 
his kernel without Exynos support. I can't remember the name though...

Best regards,
Krzysztof
