[PATCH 1/3 2.6.24-git] LIBATA: Add HAVE_PATA_PLATFORM to select PATA_PLATFORM driver

[Ben Dooks]

[-- Attachment #1: libata-pata-kconfig.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1216 bytes --]

Add HAVE_PATA_PLATFORM to select the pata platform driver
to ensure that we do not end up with a long 'depends on' list
when other users of this driver turn up.

Thanks.

ACK patch series...  would it be ok to send via the ARM maintainer?

I would prefer to add this at the same time as its user...

I've only seen the one patch, and I suspect that it depends on patches
to other architectures (to convert other architectures to use the new
variable.)

Hmm, that is a difficult one. If I send it via RMK, then it assumes
that Jeff applies the core patch first and gets his pull request off
first. If I send via Jeff, I have to hope RMK doesn't try and modify
any of the RPC code (unlikely, these machines have been out of production
for a few years now).

Even worse, the rest of the patches have to also be applied in order
as they remove from the depends line...
