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.

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?
