TBH I have no strong opinion. Only one remark on your patch, I am not
a fan of removing COMPILE_TEST but at the same time I'm not a fan of
ifdeffery. All on all I think having COMPILE_TEST is preferable even
if we have ifdeffery. Btw, IIRC similar code (i.e. BYT vs CHT by CPU
ID) is being used elsewhere. Perhaps we might have some common
(library) under arc/x86, PDx86 or so (headers?)?
