This looks good to me, too.
I do not know if we need "&& !ARCH_FOO", though.

When we are compile-testing, we do not care if it works on run-time,
so perhaps it makes sense to allow to enable/disable RESET_FOO
regardless ARCH_FOO.


Philipp also agreed, so I guess the permission for this rework
is granted.
Would you do it?
