Subject: [PATCH] pata_platfrom: add MACH_HAS_PATA_PLATFORM configuration
Date: Mon, 19 Nov 2007 12:36:58 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071119123658.GI26444@trinity.fluff.org> (raw)
Add a configuration entry (MACH_HAS_PATA_PLATFORM) so that any machine
impelementing a pata_platform driver can add this to their own Kconfig
to enable the PATA_PLATFORM driver.
This will avoid multiple patches to the drivers/ata/Kconfig when new
machine support is added.
