I just merged the patch and hadn't seen the earlier discussion,
just two small notes from me:

- thanks for doing it this way instead of the backwards 'imply'
- there is really no need to split it into two steps, since the
  change to the Kconfig.platforms file logically goes with this
  one and I would merge both through the SoC tree, having it
  as a single patch would make sense.
