I prefer that you do not depend on ARCH_BCM and do not
encode default y, but select it in the arch instead. That way
some other system can test-compile it for example.

Which should work fine.

And when that can be done, some of the good kernel
proofreaders and janitors will make a deep review some
day.

Yours,
