Well, thats is not that easy. The generated asm-offsets.h file ends up 
in arch/arm/include/asm/arch-mx35/ after a "make mx35pdk_config" "make" 
"make distclean" run. It is generated to include/asm/arch/ in the SoCs 
makefile so I don't understand why it ends up in 
arch/arm/include/asm/arch-mx35/

I don't think it makes sense to add a entry for each SoC using auto 
generated asm-offset files to the top level makefile. Same goes for the 
.s file as we shouldn't remove all .s files in the tree.
