That is far from a theoretical case. The ARM port has always supported multiple machines in a single kernel. They just had to be "compatible" in other words, the same SoC. All the platforms supported by arch/arm/mach-iop32x can be built as a single kernel image and run on any of those platforms. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 40Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
