Are you sure that this will work as in the mainboard/{vendor}/{model}/Kconfig 
it is used to select which sb is used. (Maybe I'm wrong with this, but I used 
the amd_serengeti target as starting point, and there it's done the same way.)

For example here on my board it looks like:
config BOARD_GIGABYTE_M57SLI
        bool "M57SLI"
        select ARCH_X86
        select CPU_AMD_K8
        select CPU_AMD_SOCKET_AM2
        select NORTHBRIDGE_AMD_AMDK8
        select NORTHBRIDGE_AMD_AMDK8_ROOT_COMPLEX
        select SOUTHBRIDGE_NVIDIA_MCP55
        select SUPERIO_WINBOND_IT8716F
        select PIRQ_TABLE
        select USE_PRINTK_IN_CAR
        help
        Gigabyte M57SLI mainboard
endchoice
