You could also have a "v7+" unified kernel -- i.e., supporting OMAP3+4+SMP.
This is what we currently do in Linaro, since we're focusing on

v7

This sounds good way forward considering future OMAP architectures as well.

But I let Tony comment on this idea.

AFAIK these issues will be hopefully sorted out by the time the next merge window opens. For the -rc cycle, disabling SMP in config if ARMv6 is selected should do the trick.

Ok.
