That's why I said "you might consider..." above. But thinking more, you're right. When we want an optimized version for a specific SoC, we just compile for that SoC and get the optimized version. Go ahead and leave out the #ifdef, but I'd still like to see some tests on OMAP2 that show that reading this undefined part of the INTC block does indeed return zero.
