No additional code is required to build a generic kernel.  The only
difference would be a vendor's defconfig/fragment.

The aim of this set is to provide more flexibility around how driver
symbols can be configured via Kconfig.  Currently if ARCH_EXYNOS
(which is required if we wish to provide SERIAL_SAMSUNG as an option)
is enabled it blindly enables lots of symbols without recourse.
