Well, a driver should be independent of the underlying arch. In practice, we have ARCH dependencies, as many of the devices only exist on that arch. But I think the drivers should still be designed to be arch-independent, as far as possible (omapdss compiles fine on x86). If the driver depends on OF, it should depend on OF in the Kconfig, no matter if the arch also depends on OF. I don't really care if the EXYNOS_LCD_S6E8AX0 has OF dependency or not, but to me this just looks unneeded cleanup, cluttering git logs, and in my opinion it's even going to the wrong direction. Tomi
