This option is used nowhere and should be removed. Certainly it does not

It does for a ColdFire platform...

grep -r CONFIG_FEC2 *

arch/m68knommu/platform/527x/config.c:#ifdef CONFIG_FEC2
arch/m68knommu/platform/527x/config.c:#ifdef CONFIG_FEC2
IMHO Sascha's comment[1] applies here, too.
I am not arguing that it doesn't :-)

Simply that removing that config option and doing nothing

And someone might want to do what he suggested soon or the patch
removing CONFIG_FEC2[2] needs to be commented accordingly.

Best regards
Uwe
