When this topic was last discussed we looked into what prevented
ARM from using the generic drivers/Kconfig.
The conclusion was that only IDE and MTD did so.
The IDE issue was quickly fixed in upstream by introducing HAVE_IDE
and the MTD issue were concluded to be a non-issue.

So there should not be any problems left to my best knowledge to
use the generic drivers/Kconfig for arm.
