Not all boards based on exynos5250 have SPI flash, same serial port and might not require display and the same lds script. Hence move them to board specific config file.
At least for the serial port this should be controlled by the device tree. There are quite a lot of pending patches for exynos, one of which enables this and removes the need for the CONFIG_SERIAL3 define.
If you want to have a look, I pushed them to:
http://git.denx.de/u-boot-x86.git in branch 'snow'
I was not aware of this patchset. Thanks for pointing out. I will update my patchset to use DT for serial.

v1 was posted as the second patch of [1]
Changes in v2: - split from the patchset at [1] - moved CONFIG_LCD and CONFIG_SPI_FLASH - rebased to latest u-boot-samsung master branch

This is a misnomer - it actually means Exynos 5250 I think. The only thing it controls is the generation of the SPL packaging tool. So for now it should be defined for all Exynos5250 boards.
Yes its a misnomer. I will change the name to CONFIG_EXYNOS5250.
Sounds good.

Again I suspect this is a misnomer.
Since all boards might not need this lds file, so how about moving lds file to board/samsung/common and renaming it to exynos5250-uboot-spl.lds. The boards needing this will have to include in their respective config files. Let me know your opinion.
OK, so long has you know of boards that don't need it?

The intent with the exynos5250-dt file is that it supports any board with that chip, so it should enable any feature used by Exynos5250 boards. Granted that might not suit all boards, which only need a subset of the features. Perhaps we should create an exynos5250-dt-base.h, with just the core options defined. Then other boards can include the base file, and exynos5250-dt can stay as the 'enable everything/ config?
So as per you suggestion, there would be 3 files. One exynos5250-dt-base.h, second exynos5250-dt.h and third the board specific config file.
How about having core options unconditionally enabled in exynos5250-dt.h and other options with #ifdef. The board specific config files can define the other options. This way only 2 files will do.
For example, let exynos5250-dt.h has SPI related configs under #ifdef CONFIG_SPI_FLASH and let smdk5250.h or arndale.h define CONFIG_SPI_FLASH based on the spi flash presence in respective boards.
Let me know your opinion.
Well the problem is who sets CONFIG_SPI_FLASH
For us at least, exynos5250-dt is a good upstream target, since we can add all features into it and it will should boot on all the different boards. It helps to make sure that other boards don't get non-device-tree config that breaks this approach.
So I think you do need a base config file. But I think a better name might be exynos5250-dt-common.h instead of exynos5250-dt-base.h.
As per my understanding the exynos5250-dt.h was meant to be common for all exynos5250 based boards. Creating one more base common file looks a bit overdone to me.
Yes it is supposed to be able to boot on all boards. But if you are wanting to #undef options, then you could create a new board.
I will drop this patch. And for Arndale board support, I will just #undef the config options which are not needed as of now.
OK.
