config UNCOMPRESS_INCLUDE
	string
	default "debug/uncompress.h" if ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM || ARCH_MSM || \
					PLAT_SAMSUNG || ARM_SINGLE_ARMV7M || \
					ARCH_SHMOBILE_LEGACY
	default "mach/uncompress.h"


I'm going for the smallest possible port, I don't have a debug/tango.S
I didn't define DEBUG_UNCOMPRESS in my .config, and I just wanted to
get this NOP definition from debug/uncompress.h

	static inline void putc(int c) {}

Are you saying I cannot do it like that?

If ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM is defined, then debug/uncompress.h will be
included, just like I want.

If ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM is not defined, can I do this in my port:

config UNCOMPRESS_INCLUDE
	string
	default "debug/uncompress.h" if !ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM

or add my platform to the list on arch/arm/Kconfig.debug?

Regards.
