                Say Y here if your platform doesn't provide a UART option
                above. This relies on your platform choosing the right UART

ARCH_S3C24XX has been moved over in linux-next to use debug/s3c24xx.S.
A few others will likely move soon (AT91, CLPS711x, S5PV210), as the
platforms get moved to ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM.

The list in my patch came from:

sundance$ find arch/arm -name "debug-macro.S"
arch/arm/mach-at91/include/mach/debug-macro.S
arch/arm/mach-clps711x/include/mach/debug-macro.S
arch/arm/mach-footbridge/include/mach/debug-macro.S
arch/arm/mach-ks8695/include/mach/debug-macro.S
arch/arm/mach-netx/include/mach/debug-macro.S
arch/arm/mach-omap1/include/mach/debug-macro.S
arch/arm/mach-s3c64xx/include/mach/debug-macro.S
arch/arm/mach-s5p64x0/include/mach/debug-macro.S
arch/arm/mach-s5pc100/include/mach/debug-macro.S
arch/arm/mach-s5pv210/include/mach/debug-macro.S
arch/arm/mach-sa1100/include/mach/debug-macro.S

In other words this patch lists of all platforms where
DEBUG_LL_UART_NONE should not result in failure to compile the kernel.

This list doesn't seem to have changed in linux-next.

As an alternative to your patch, we could decide to move the remaining
files as well.

Follow-up: I also noticed that AT91, CLPS711X, FOOTBRIDGE and all the SAMSUNG
platforms already have an entry in the list, so DEBUG_LL_UART_NONE is redundant
for them. The below change should be enough.

For AT91 this is actually better because the old AT91X40 support doesn't
have working DEBUG_LL support. This gets handled correctly by 
AT91_DEBUG_LL_DBGU0/AT91_DEBUG_LL_DBGU1, but not DEBUG_LL_UART_NONE.

I'm very happy to update my patch to follow this one. However since it
will render the corresponding debug-macro.S unreachable by KBuild I like
to nuke the file as well. Good idea?
