I think if people are OK with this approach we'll want to extend
it so that it's cutting out more than just the platforms -
there's quite a lot of drivers and subsystems that aren't
platform specific but are clearly not something we'd want as
default for running in a virtual environment, enough to make a
difference to build times.  That doesn't mean that a "disable all
the platform support" Kconfig isn't useful, just that I don't
think we'd want this to be a one liner long term.
