Title:
  ARM only kernel drivers being built on x86

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I was doing a kernel config and noticed there are a bunch of
  ARM/non-x86 only drivers being built on x86 - they're just increasing
  build time and taking up space in /lib/modules; spotted so far:

    - Exynos random number generator:  ./kernel/drivers/char/hw_random/exynos-rng.ko
    - Calxeda network driver: ./kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/calxeda
    - Mac input: kernel/drivers/macintosh/mac_hid.ko
    - ATMEL SoC: ./kernel/sound/soc/atmel/snd-soc-atmel-pcm.ko  

  I bet there are a bunch of others as well - might be worth having a
  clean out of the ones that are physically impossible.
