Repost of http://marc.info/?l=linux-ide&m=118106594419762&w=2
Could someone comment on the following please:
Add a hidden configuration for an architecture or machine to
select to show that the pata_platform driver should be show
in the configuration.
This method is used to allow each individual machine/arch to
specify this, instead of creating large "depends on" on the
driver's Kconfig menu.
If this patch is acceptable, I will submit a patch to
move ARCH_RPC to select ARCH_HAS_PATA_PLATFORM.
