   I think this 'lazy reviewability'  comes at the cost of very
abstraction  the features framework is intended to provide, not to
mention the question of correct selection (is this a OMAP4 specific
feature or is OMAP5 expected to have it ?). and upgradation.

   As mentioned before, the surrounding context of the use of
omap_has_feature() will provide enough clues about the cpu specific
nature of a feature, if at all needed.
Does it really? when a new feature is added, dont we want to know if
it is generic feature or a omap specific feature? where is the flag?

Yeah I don't know what we should do with these defines.. Kind of just
threw the patch out there.

If we already have omap specific omap_has_feature functions, we don't
need cpu_is_omapxxxx in most cases.

I suggest we only use the generic defines now, then look at it again
when we run out of the bits to define.
ack.
