Is a separate symbol needed? Theoretically, this could be used by other SoC's. However, afaik the i.MX6 SoloX, which one could see as something like the successor of Vybrid, implements the interrupt routing differently. So I would be fine to just use the SOC_VF610 symbol instead. The only thing which I would rather prefer to keep is the comment what this is all about (the help text).
