> Only two architectures use the OF node reference counting and reclaim bits.
> There is no need to compile it for the rest of the PowerPC platforms or for
> any of the other architectures.  This patch makes iseries and pseries
> select CONFIG_OF_DYNAMIC, and makes it default to off for everything else.
> 
> It is still safe to turn on CONFIG_OF_DYNAMIC on all architectures, it just
> isn't necessary.
