Hi,

This is also not a good idea becaouse it would break the driver
for OMAP1 once somebody enables COMPILE_TEST option while also
having ARCH_OMAP1 enabled (which is perfectly fine and shouldn't
cause the driver breakage).  In general COMPILE_TEST option is
completely independent from the arch specific ones and it should
not change behaviour of the existing code.

Best regards,
