I'd say it's better to remove the check and simplify the conditional to
eliminate this corner case. Maybe keep the #defines around for
documentation, but even that may not be necessary for CPUs that likely don't
exist anymore.
IIRC Ralf used to have a working R6k machine, but I have no idea what has
happened to it. No port of Linux has been made for that system though,
that's for sure.
