Shouldn't this be "if SOC_AR5312"?

Though since you are adding runtime detection/correction below, I
wonder if this would be really needed as an extra symbol, and rather
use the later introduced (CPU_MAY_HAVE_LLSC) directly.

Or rather have select "CPU_HAS_LLSC if !SOC_AR5312" in that case.

since the #else path defines cpu_has_llsc as 0, it means that kernels
targeting both SoCs would force llsc to be unavailable (not introduced
by you).

So this probably should be rather this:

#if !defined(CONFIG_SOC_AR5312)
#define cpu_has_llsc 1
#else if !defined(CONFIG_SOC_AR5312)
#define cpu_has_llsc 0
#endif

(so if only one is enabled, set it accordingly, else let runtime
detection handle it).

And then you don't need this error message at all, since then
cpu_has_llsc is 0 or follows MIPS_CPU_LLSC, unless you disabled
support for the relevant SoC, and then you'll have bigger problems
anyway.
