I've managed to construct .config files (for ppc64) that come across
this Kconfig warning:
warning: (MPC836x_RDK && MTD_NAND_FSL_ELBC && MTD_NAND_FSL_UPM) selects FSL_LBC which has unmet direct dependencies (FSL_SOC)
Let's add the FSL_SOC dependency to the NAND drivers. AFAICT, they are
only supported on PPC32 FSL SoCs anyway.

There are other problems, if you can enable an 83xx board on ppc64. PPC_83xx
does select FSL_SOC so I don't know why it's unmet.
FWIW, I think we should instead drop the FSL_SOC dependency from FSL_LBC. It
doesn't use anything that I can see from fsl_soc.c. It's been commonly abused
as a means for hiding the option on builds for other platforms, but that has
to stop anyway now that many of these devices are also on ARM-based chips.
eLBC isn't, since it was obsoleted by IFC, but it shouldn't be unnecessarily
different from IFC. IFC currently depends on FSL_SOC but that needs to go
away.

I don't have an 83xx board enabled. I just have MTD_NAND_FSL_ELBC
enabled; it only depends on PPC right now. Attaching the current test
.config, for clarity.
So I guess only the first hunk of my patch is required right now.

Solve this however you'd like. Consider my patch just a bug report :)

Where did MPC836x_RDK come from above?
I believe that Kconfig warning is misleading. Seems like it should be
saying '||' instead of '&&'. I did not have MPC836x_RDK or
MTD_NAND_FSL_UPM in my .config; only MTD_NAND_FSL_ELBC=y. (Check the
attachment from my previous mail to be sure.)

Brian
