Which kernel version ? But the answer is not necessarily, if a machine 
config
is specifying something that hasn't been tagged "hardware" or that
has a specified exception, you get a warning.

It's not about them being common or not, it's about BSPs following a
base policy versus having wild, per-board behaviour.

Cheers,
