Not really; that's really a hardware question and not a software one.

There are hardware devices that can go with any platform/architecture,
e.g., WLAN chips. OTOH, there are a lot of hardware devices that are
coupled with certain SoC, e.g. OMAP's remote processors.

What I'm trying to understand is whether the STE modem device belongs
to the former or latter group. It sounds like a modem belongs to the
former group, but if it does belong to the latter, then the building
of its driver should be possible only on the relevant
platforms/architectures.

Thanks,
Ohad.
