- Find someway to handle the wide variety of interrupt controllers.
- Be able to handle any multitude of V:P translations, including non-linear
  alongside linear transations.
- Different PAGE_OFFSETs
- Different kernel VM layouts allowing for a variety of different ioremap
  region sizes

and so the list goes on...

Note that Linus is talking about removing all but one or two ARM
defconfigs - which means your omap3_defconfig will probably be
eventually culled.
