[PATCH] pata_platfrom: add MACH_HAS_PATA_PLATFORM configuration

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add a configuration entry (MACH_HAS_PATA_PLATFORM) so that any machine
impelementing a pata_platform driver can add this to their own Kconfig
to enable the PATA_PLATFORM driver.

This will avoid multiple patches to the drivers/ata/Kconfig when new
machine support is added.
