Hi Jean,

These drivers are for IPs implemented in an FPGA. For now it is true
that they are used only on one board with an iMX.51 but this is not a
strong dependency and it might change in the future if Technologic
Systems decide to reuse these IPs on boards based on different SoCs.

As the FPGA and the SoC are two separate chips, I don't know how such
dependency should be expressed in kconfig.

Thanks,
Damien
