Thanks for the patch, but..

It would be better if this is split and sent through your arch tree, to
avoid conflicts. I could also pick it if you get an ack from one of your
maintainers. Still, first option is preferable.

Not sure if this is really what you wanted. Based on your commit log
message, you meant the following, perhaps?

 +	default y if ARCH_BCM_IPROC

Did we look BCM47094 somehow on this patch?
