How does that file actually need this select statement?

What in the current mainline kernel cares about a
machine_is_nokia_rm696() macro?
    $ git grep -n machine_is_nokia v3.9-rc1
    v3.9-rc1:arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-n8x0.c:349:  if (machine_is_nokia_n800() || slot == 0)
    v3.9-rc1:arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-n8x0.c:395:  if (machine_is_nokia_n800()) {
    v3.9-rc1:arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-n8x0.c:428:  if (machine_is_nokia_n800())
    v3.9-rc1:arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-n8x0.c:451:  if (machine_is_nokia_n800()) {
    v3.9-rc1:arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-n8x0.c:478:  if (machine_is_nokia_n800())
    v3.9-rc1:arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-n8x0.c:493:  if (machine_is_nokia_n810()) {
    v3.9-rc1:arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-n8x0.c:544:  if (machine_is_nokia_n810()) {
    v3.9-rc1:arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-n8x0.c:562:  if (machine_is_nokia_n810()) {
    v3.9-rc1:arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-n8x0.c:714:  if (machine_is_nokia_n810())
    v3.9-rc1:arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-rx51-video.c:71:     if (!machine_is_nokia_rx51())
    v3.9-rc1:drivers/usb/host/ohci-omap.c:267:      } else if (machine_is_nokia770()) {
    v3.9-rc1:sound/soc/omap/n810.c:309:     if (!(machine_is_nokia_n810() || machine_is_nokia_n810_wimax()))
    v3.9-rc1:sound/soc/omap/rx51.c:400:     if (!machine_is_nokia_rx51())

    $ git grep -n rm696 v3.9-rc1
    v3.9-rc1:arch/arm/tools/mach-types:589:nokia_rm696		MACH_NOKIA_RM696	NOKIA_RM696		3522

I don't find any actual usage of that macro. Are its uses also
generated?

Of course. That's one of the reasons why I explicitly state that I only
tested it that way.

Where would that be? And does that tree actually have a Kconfig entry
MACH_NOKIA_RM696?
