I think they are a bit safer because CONFIG_EDAC_LAYERSCAPE and
CONFIG_EDAC_MPC85XX are mutually exclusive (one is only
on powerpc, the other is only on ARM). It would break though if
one were to make them build with CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST,
or if another driver gets added that for ARM.
I just thought about a possible Kconfig solution some more, and
had this idea:

Basically I cheat Kconfig, so if one driver is built-in and
the other is a loadable module, we compile both as built-in.
