Hi Vineet,

I just came across arch/mips/Kconfig which also defines ARC (and ARC32).
It's only used within arch/mips/, however it's probably more likely that
your ARC/CONFIG_ARC will find it's way into the generic bits of the
kernel which could get hit when the other ARC is defined.

Perhaps it's worth getting the other ARC renamed just in case?

Cheers
James

The MIPS world surely isn't as attached to the CONFIG_ARC config symbol
as Synopsis so I'm going to rename CONFIG_ARC and a few other firmware
related config symbols to use a consistent prefix of CONFIG_FW_.
