>Is select APM now redundant in VT82686 too?

No it's not, quite the opposite indeed: APM is provided by the VT82686 south bridge, so it needs to select it. See also patches 2 and 4 of this series for futher explanation.

The idea of this patch is to remove the redundant selections from the boards.
