I don't think that's upstream suitable. It will cripple any non-XO
system that boots a kernel with that option included. Remember that
distributors like Fedora ship their generic kernels to the whole world
with CONFIG_OLPC enabled.
At the very least there should be a runtime "am i an XO" check inside
the ifdef..although ideally we could find (with Harald) a less ugly way
of doing this.
