It's great to see you are this close now!

The split between single and multi is just intended to be temporary,
while the framebuffer driver is being sorted out, right?

In general, I'd be happier skipping that stage and going to multiplatform
for all of clps711x when it's ready, but we can also do it like this
if  there is a good reason and you have a clear schedule for when to
remove the _SINGLE part.

One technicality: this change breaks all defconfig files and user
.configs. You can avoid that if you keep the name ARCH_CLPS711X for
either the single- or the multiplatform case and name the common
option ARCH_CLPS711X_COMMON.
