Yes it is. You might want a CONFIG_PPC with that.
It has been..... uhhhh carry the two... longer than I want to admit
since I worked on a sparc. Would GPIO based LEDS make sense on a sparc
platform? Is sparc used much in the embedded world?
If yes, the of_register_platform_driver is just a nice wrapper. It
would be trivial to either change it to work on sparc, or add the
wrapper to the sparc includes.
Cheers,
Sean
