I don't think that's a good idea. That would mean I would have to add
!SPARC and !S390 and many other to that list as well. Also there are a
couple of drivers that are in the process of being ported which are not
restricted to ARM or embedded in general. So even if we make this !X86
now, eventually it will pop up again.
