I would even drop this... Lemme check, it looks odd. We depend on
ARCH_QCOM which uses OF. We have few drivers which depend on ACPI, but
that also seems wrong. These are platform drivers so they should expect
platform select proper firmware interface. I think none of other
platform drivers do like this (neither Samsung pinctrl nor other
Qualcomm drivers)).

I will fix this. For your patch I would just skip OF entirely.

Best regards,
