One way to avoid having to modify mach-bcm/Kconfig would be to have your
i2c driver Kconfig do this:
default ARCH_BCM_IPROC
would that work?
Yes. So in which case it is better to select a driver from the
architecture specific Kconfig?
I suppose if your driver/subsystem is critical for system boot, like
powering a regulator or something that has a critical purpose, a select
is probably more appropriate here. If this is just exposing non-critical
devices, I would go with a depends on/default at the driver Kconfig level.
This is just how I see things, others would definitively have a
different view.
Okay. Thanks. I default the driver to y in patchset v3 just like some
other I2C drivers in the same Kconfig. It already depends on
ARCH_BCM_IPROC so it makes sense to set the default to y, i.e., it will
be enabled by default for ARCH_BCM_IPROC platforms.

This enables support for systems based on Broadcom IPROC
architected SoCs.
The IPROC complex contains one or more ARM CPUs along with
