Just
	default ARCH_LUBBOCK || MACH_MAINSTONE

should be enough.

PXA_SYSTEMS_CPLDS is a bool symbol, so pxa_cplds_irqs.o will never be
part of a module, correct?

Since this is built-in only code this include is probably unneeded.

MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() will be preprocessed away for built-in only code.

Speaking from memory: for built-in only code this is equivalent to
having a wrapper that only calls
	platform_driver_register(&cplds_driver);

and have that wrapper marked as
	device_initcall()

These three macros will effectively be preprocessed away for built-in
only code.
