The config is needed, as there are hard-coded invocations of
mx6s-specific code in the kernel. If you remove the CONFIG_SOC_IMX6SL,
linkage will fail while looking for stuff like:

imx6sl_set_wait_clk()
init_mmdc_lpddr2_settings()
update_lpddr2_freq()

If you really insist on changing this, you can axe-hack all source
files which contain invocations of cpu_is_imx6sl(). Or, fix it and
submit a patch.

Probably you're right that it could have been implemented better, but
unless we improve it, that's what we have :D.

Kind regards,
Nikolay
