The PPC_OF is a ppc specific option which is used to mean that the
firmware device tree access functions are available. Since all the
ppc platforms have a device tree, it is aways set to 'y' for ppc.
So it makes no sense to keep a such option in the current kernel.
Replace it with PPC.

Thanks Ben.

Which tree do we expect this to go through ?
I just sent out a v2 [1] a few hours earlier with some minor updates. We plan
to merge this patch series via the powerpc tree in 4.1 cycle if I can collect
all the acks from the corresponding driver maintainers.

Anything I'm the maintainer by default for has my ack (radeonfb,
aty128fb, ...)

Cheers,
Ben.
