Dear Marek,

Please ignore, after discussing this on IRC, we decided on doing s/CONFIG_ARMV7/CONFIG_CPU_V7/g instead.
As IRC si (to the best or my knowledge?) not logged anywhere, I would like to hear the rationale for this decision.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but AFAICT ARMv7 is an official name for a specific ARM architecture, so ARMV7 is something I will probably associate with the right thing.
Compared this to CPU_V7, which can be about anything - which CPU are we talking about here, please?
I still remember the ATWAV syndrome and how long it took to overcome it in code, so do we really have now a stage where we assume that all the world's an ARM ? [SCNR]
In short: Is there a chance to come up with a better name than CPU_V7?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
