Perhaps I'm being a bit clueless, but I'm not sure I see the benefit
of specifying in the kernel config whether the OMAP SOC is a 3503,
3515, 3525, or 3530.

The processor is the same ARM Cortex-A8 in all cases.  Code that may
want to use the graphics accelerator or DSP can easily check for the
presence of each at run time (Control OMAP Status Register @
0x4800244C)

Is there something I am missing?
