This is getting out of control. Not a comment to this specific patch,
but it's getting silly.

Btw, why no PCI by default on this platform when it seemingly is default
on 5200? I thought they were fairly similar.

For new platforms it makes more sense to make it possible to build
multiplatform kernels instead of using 'choice'.

I know some embedded board guys prefer to build a custom kernel for just
their board (since it means extra revenue for them to spin a kernel
for every customer), but it's still convenient to be able to build
multiplatform kernels. Especially since there's some companies out there
with intent to make end-user products with this cpu.

Stephen will tell you to include linux/of_platform.h instead. :-)

Why do you need this, when 5200 doesn't?
