So only CONFIG_ARCH_ACORN is affected.

As I said, I want to send this series this merge window, so if you
do not find the time to look into this before rc1, what about removing
this patch from my queue and we solve this later?
Acorn Risc CPU is probably not the hottest platform right now, so if we
fix this in rc2 or rc3 this might be ok - I guess.
