  No it won't, as the Makefile inside mach-bcm will only pull in files 
based on ARCH_ settings. This move is so that a number different 
Broadcom SoCs can co-exist inside the mach-bcm directory.

This patch is already contained in Hauke's patchset from yesterday ( 
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/254986) so you'll 
need to sync with him on it. In case yours goes in first:
Acked-by: Christian Daudt <csd at broadcom.com>

  Thanks,
