I guess this is more of a representative dependency, but you're right, the likelihood is that no one is likely to accidentally enable it. I can remove it. > Are other selects of CLKSRC_ST_LPC expected to be added in the future? > If not, CLKSRC_ST_LPC should operate in lockstep with ARCH_STI.

Although true, there might be cases where we need to stop this from being enabled on all ARCH_STI platforms. It'll be easier to move CLKSRC_ST_LPC around in arch code than to start renaming this symbol. I'd prefer to keep this as CLKSRC_ST_LPC if you're not passionate about the alternative. > > + select CLKSRC_OF if OF > > + help > > + Enable this option to use the Low Power controller timer > > + as clocksource. > > (Please add an empty line.)
