Hi Amd,

Sorry for the delayed reply,

the NPCM7xx is a family of BMC's that include NPCM750, NPCM730 and more

All of the NPCM7xx BMC's have the same basic modules like Cortex-A9,
WDT, timers and more

can we reflacte the NPCM7xx as follow in the Kconfig:

menuconfig ARCH_NPCM
        bool "Nuvoton NPCM Architecture"
        depends on ARCH_MULTI_V7
        select USE_OF
        select PINCTRL

if ARCH_NPCM

config ARCH_NPCM7XX
        bool "Support for NPCM7xx BMC (Poleg)"
        depends on ARCH_MULTI_V7
        select HAVE_ARM_SCU
        select PINCTRL_NPCM7XX
        select NPCM7XX_TIMER
        select ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB
        select ARM_GIC
        select ARM_ERRATA_720789
        select ARM_ERRATA_754322
        select ARM_ERRATA_794072
        select PL310_ERRATA_588369
        select PL310_ERRATA_727915
        select MFD_SYSCON
        help
          General support for NPCM7xx BMC (Poleg).

          Nuvoton NPCM7xx BMC based on the Cortex A9.

if ARCH_NPCM7XX

config ARCH_NPCM750
        bool "NPCM750 BMC support with Device Tree"
        select HAVE_ARM_TWD if SMP
        help
          General support for NPCM750 BMC (Poleg).

          Nuvoton NPCM750 BMC based on the Cortex A9.

config ARCH_NPCM730
        bool "NPCM730 BMC support with Device Tree"
        select HAVE_ARM_TWD if SMP
        select ARM_ERRATA_764369 if SMP
        help
          General support for NPCM730 BMC (Poleg).

          Nuvoton NPCM730 BMC based on the Cortex A9.

endif #ARCH_NPCM7XX

endif
