IIUC, for the sake of that one corner case, you have added the polling Kconfig and will be enabled for all the case and even on other platforms in a single Image. I think we could be something better, no ? Please share details on that one corner case. Is it in the scmi drivers already ? If so, specifics please. If no, again provide details on how you plan to use. We do have ways to make a polling call, but haven't mixed it with interrupt based calls for a reason, but we can revisit if it makes sense. -- Regards, Sudeep
