If they have never been used on anything but ARM, why would you remove ARM dependencies? Just for the sake of compile-checking? Also, if ARM dependency is ever removed, all these should become 'n' by default in the Kconfig, in order to make sure they do not slip into defconfigs of different architectures. -- Best Regards, Artem Bityutskiy _______________________________________________ iommu mailing list [email protected] https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/iommu
