Yeah, I just copy-n-pasted from the source file ... I'll check what can
be omitted (if this patch series has a chance at all...)

All the HELPER() functions should definitely stay in m_helper.c. They
are required for linking. Or do you prefer a stub file instead? Then we
could maybe make the whole m_helper.c conditional in the Makefile.objs
instead.
However, there's one thing I currently don't quite understand in this
code (since I'm not an ARM guy, sorry) : There are references to "v8" in
m_helper.c, too. Is that related to a separate CPU type, ie. should the
v8 code also be available when CONFIG_ARM_V7M is disabled? Or can the
code in m_helper.c be disabled completely if CONFIG_ARM_V7M is not set?
