On some BCM5301x ARM devices, user space still needs to control some
system GPIO pins for which no driver exists. This is a lot easier to do
with a predictable GPIO base.

Is there any chance you will need predictable GPIO numbers of extra
bcma buses on ARM? Like accessing GPIO of PCIe card from user space?
Then you could prefer IS_BUILTIN(CONFIG_ARCH_BCM_5301X)

Anyway, I'm OK with this patch.

I don't think I need it, and I didn't want this change to produce
conflicts on multi-arch builds, so I limited it to the SoC bus only.

OK, thanks.
