Well, I would not say "weird" but different. None of the usual device

True. I'm still sitting on a couple of patches that make s390 use the
standard drivers/Kconfig. The downside of these patches is that I have
to add a lot of "depends on !S390" all over the place.

No bcm43xx, no bluetooth on s390..
