Hmm, would it be OK if I add this option as a private kconfig option?
I.E (for ARC_DSP_HANDLED):

config ARC_DSP_HANDLED

prompt "DSP support"
default ARC_DSP_NONE
help
  Depending on the configuration, CPU can contain DSP registers
  (ACC0_GLO, ACC0_GHI, DSP_BFLY0, DSP_CTRL, DSP_FFT_CTRL).
  Bellow is options describing how to handle these registers in
  interrupt entry / exit and in context switch.

config ARC_DSP_NONE
bool "No DSP extension presence in HW"
help
  No DSP extension presence in HW

config ARC_DSP_KERNEL
bool "DSP extension in HW, no support for userspace"
select ARC_HAS_ACCL_REGS
select ARC_DSP_HANDLED
help
  DSP extension presence in HW, no support for DSP-enabled userspace
  applications. We don't save / restore DSP registers and only do
  some minimal preparations so userspace won't be able to break kernel

config ARC_DSP_USERSPACE
bool "Support DSP for userspace apps"
select ARC_HAS_ACCL_REGS
select ARC_DSP_HANDLED
help
  DSP extension presence in HW, support save / restore DSP registers to
  run DSP-enabled userspace applications
