> Subject: [PATCH 4/4] MIPS: generic: Don't claim PC parport/serio
>
> None of the supported MIPS generic platforms can have the PC parallel
> port or PC serial port (and we don't yet have to be concerned with
> Malta which does), and enabling the PC serial driver will result in a
> panic from i8042_flush during boot. Therefore conditionalise the MIPS
> selection of ARCH_MIGHT_HAVE_PC_{PARPORT,SERIO} on !MIPS_GENERIC.
>
> This particularly matters since commit f2d0b0d5c171 ("MIPS: ranchu: Add
> Ranchu as a new generic-based board"), which adds a board fragment which
> enables INPUT_KEYBOARD. That implicitly enables KEYBOARD_ATKBD which
> then selects SERIO_I8042 if ARCH_MIGHT_HAVE_PC_SERIO.
>
> We can always select it from specific platforms later.
