What is the preference for multiplatform-enabled arch/Kconfig's?
Should we be specifying options that are already enabled by
multiplatform or can we assume they will always be enabled?
It 'feels' safer to explicitly enable them to catch problems later when
things are changed and people forget :)
Examples: MULTI_IRQ_HANDLER, SPARSE_IRQ, USE_OF, COMMON_CLK...
Regards

They won't just go away from CONFIG_MULTIPLATFORM, no need to enable
them yourself. We also have a lot of options that are unconditionally
enabled for all ARM platforms.
