I don't see any justification for MTD_OBSOLETE_CHIPS depending on BROKEN. That option covers a few of the obsolete chip drivers which people shouldn't be using any more -- and I'm perfectly willing to believe that one or two of those don't work any more, but if that's the case then those individual drivers ought to be marked BROKEN (or just removed). We shouldn't mark MTD_OBSOLETE_CHIPS broken. I'd like to see the collie_defconfig updated to use the appropriate CFI driver back end. -- dwmw2
