[v1] gpio: vf610: allow disabling the vf610 driver

[PATCH] gpio: vf610: allow disabling the vf610 driver

Posted by Martin Kaiser 1 year, 11 months ago

The vf610 gpio driver is enabled by default for all i.MX machines,
without any option to disable it in a board-specific config file.

Most i.MX chipsets have no hardware for this driver. Change the default
to enable GPIO_VF610 for SOC_VF610 and disable it otherwise.

Add a text description after the bool type, this makes the driver
selectable by make config etc. i.MX chips other than SOC_VF610 can now
enable the driver from their board config.

Fixes: 30a35c07d9e9 ("gpio: vf610: drop the SOC_VF610 dependency for GPIO_VF610")
