Looks like the fix is simpler than I thought. Instead of having
UCC_GETH
select UCC_FAST
I need to do
UCC_FAST
default y if UCC_GETH
I'll have a patch that fixes this out later today.
I chose the first method because I wanted each individual UCC device driver to select
UCC_FAST or UCC_SLOW as appropriate, so that I wouldn't have to update
arch/powerpc/sysdev/qe_lib/Kconfig every time we add a new UCC driver. Oh well.
