Hi Akshay,

The amd-sbi Linux driver (sbrmi-i2c kernel module) can currently be
selected on all architectures. Is this driver intended to be used on
the host, or on the BMC, or both?

If it's an host-side driver, it should not be proposed on non-x86
architectures by default and we should add a hardware dependency to it
(or'd with COMPILE_TEST to preserve build testing coverage). What do
you think?

Thanks,
