why not ? It forces people to write portable drivers, it forces people
to avoid including the wrong headers and allows maintainers and patch
authors to easily compile test their drivers.

On top of all that, it lets me better use linux-next as a big build
testing before I send a pull request to Greg.

When you're going to build a product, you will come up with a proper
.config anyway. Because of a bunch of these misused 'depends on' and
'select' statements that right now ARM multiplatform builds don't even
compile cleanly if you enable all ARM-related drivers.

Until all of those are cleaned up, the best way is to force people to
write drivers which compile in all architectures and make sure Kconfig
doesn't add any ARCH dependency.
