How about changing the title of the option though? A user will
usually not know if he is using the v2 or v3 controller without
reading the help text. If you change it to

config MMC_SDHCI_PXAV2
	tristate "Marvell PXA168 SD Host Controller support (PXAV2)"
	default CPU_PXA168

config MMC_SDHCI_PXAV3
	tristate "Marvell MMP2/PX9XX SD Host Controller support (PXAV3)"
	default CPU_MMP2 || CPU_PXA910

you increase the chances of users getting the configuration right.

BTW, both of you: Please always remove the lines that you don't refer to
when you reply to an email. It's very annoying having to scroll through
dozens of lines of citations to see what you are actually writing.
