There is no and never was a Kconfig for ARM_ERRATA_794072 in the kernel
tree. So, there is no need to select ARM_ERRATA_794072 in
./arch/arm/mach-npcm/Kconfig.

Simply drop selecting the non-existing ARM_ERRATA_794072.

This issue was discovered with ./scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py.

Could this be a typo? Maybe we need to enable a different errata workaround
here, or maybe that code is actually needed and has to get sent.
Doing some searching, u-boot had a workaround for something called
ARM_ERRATA_794072.

https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/commit/f71cbfe3ca5d2ad20159871700e8e248c8818ba8

Lore has the review history for that patch:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/6be32e0b5b454ed7b609317266a8e798@BLUPR03MB358.namprd03.prod.outlook.com/ (local)

It looks like it's the same workaround as ARM_ERRATA_742230, which the
kernel does implement.

It would be good to hear from the Nuvoton people, or an Arm person.

Cheers,

Joel
