I am not sure if such platform specific changes are encouraged
in a generic file like drivers/gpio/Kconfig. I don't know a better
way to achieve this either :(

This change will need to get reviewed by a wider list.

scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/gpio/Kconfig

gives:

Andrew Morton <[email protected]>
Samuel Ortiz <[email protected]>
Mark Brown <[email protected]>
Rabin Vincent <[email protected]>
Linus Walleij <[email protected]>

Can you please re-send this patch with these folks and lists in CC too?

Thanks,
Sekhar
