My pleasure.

The patch doesn't work because the file smi.h is not
symlinked into the build directory as hal.c is.

Personally -but that's just my humble opinion- I think leaving the
call to rthal_smi_init in the hal.c file and having it removed by
the preprocessor is a little bit confusing. Because
when reading hal.c it seems as if rthal_smi_init is called no
matter what.

In a similar fashion, having f.e. rthal_ppc_init() calls in x86 or
general code would be confusing even if the code was removed
by the preprocessor behind the screens.

With friendly regards,
Takis
