The only compile-time dependencies I see are HAS_IOMEM (which MMC
already depends on) and HAS_DMA.  There isn't any compile-time
dependency on COMMON_CLK, REGULATOR, GPIOLIB, OF, etc.  I've compiled
it successfully for a few non-ARM/ARC architectures, though that
certainly isn't an exhaustive test.  To be safe though, perhaps I'll
just update the architecture dependency to include MIPS ||
COMPILE_TEST as you suggested.
