Hmm, in general, this driver is hopefully generic enough that it doesn't
have any real architecture dependencies. And I suspect, we want to
enable this driver for ARM64 for ZynqMP soon too. Should we probably
drop these arch dependencies completely? It seems to become quite a long list.
I've been thinking about this a while ago. This is certainly not the only
driver affected by this problem. But the thing is people always complain if
new symbols become visable in Kconfig that don't apply to their platform.
I don't think it's that important. If people go do down in the GPIO submenu
they are looking at real weird stuff anyways. Please send a patch enabling
this for all rather than coming up with strange config symbols IMO.

Yours,
