[PATCH 00/10] Kconfig: cleanup SERIO_I8042 dependencies

[PATCH 00/10] Kconfig: cleanup SERIO_I8042 dependencies

[Mark Salter]

This patch series removes the messy dependencies from SERIO_I8042
by having it depend on one variable (ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_SERIO) and
having architectures which need it select that variable in
arch/*/Kconfig.

New architectures are unlikely to need SERIO_I8042, so this avoids
having an ever growing list of architectures to exclude. If an
architecture without i8042 support isn't excluded through the
dependency list for SERIO_I8042 or through explicit disabling in
a config, it will likely panic on boot with something similar to
this (from arm64):

It would be better to put this in arch/arm/mach-footbridge/Kconfig -
ARM is impled as being true there.

[PATCH 10/10] Kconfig: cleanup SERIO_I8042 dependencies

[Mark Salter]

Remove messy dependencies from SERIO_I8042 by having it depend on one
Kconfig symbol (ARCH_MIGHT_HAVE_PC_SERIO) and having architectures
which need it select ARCH_MIGHT_HAVE_PC_SERIO in arch/*/Kconfig.
New architectures are unlikely to need SERIO_I8042, so this avoids
having an ever growing list of architectures to exclude.

How are we going to merge this? In bulk through input tree or peacemeal
through all arches first?
