Ah, I see. In that case, I think we should probably just always
allow PATA_OF_PLATFORM to be enabled regardless of
HAVE_PATA_PLATFORM, something like

diff --git a/drivers/ata/Kconfig b/drivers/ata/Kconfig

and then also drop the "select HAVE_PATA_PLATFORM" from
arm64 and arm/versatile.

Or we can go one step further, and either split out the
'pata_platform_driver' into a separate file from
'__pata_platform_probe', or merge pata_of_platform.c
back into pata_platform.c.
