It's the depends line that looks like a bandage -- can't it just be "depends
on SMP", and if there are any SMP platforms that can't be immediately
converted to use this (e.g. the non-CONFIG MAX_CPUS define in
arch/arm/cpu/armv7/mx6/mp.c should be pretty easily convertible), add a TODO
note in the help text indicating that?
