Yeah, that makes sense.  Is there a Kconfig symbol for pnv_php?  If
so, you could make CONFIG_PCIEPORTBUS unselectable in the first place.

But I'm guessing there isn't such a symbol because you probably want
to be able to build generic kernels that run on machines that *can*
use portdrv as well as on PowerNV.

So I'm find with the patch as posted.
