If you're asking whether "depends on ARM" can be removed for PCI_MVEBU, I don't know the answer. I do see that CONFIG_ARCH_MVEBU is mentioned in arch/arm64, which doesn't seem to set CONFIG_ARM. In any event, I would consider a change like that to be a separate patch. Here I just want to focus on CONFIG_OF. Bjorn
