This patch should drop those selects I guess. Can you send an

Sure.

Removing all the tendrils in various device tree files will probably
require some archaeology, and it should be perfectly safe to leave those
in the tree with the driver gone. So I think we can do that as a
subsequent patch, rather than in this series.

Here are the changes. Compiled tested with ppc40x and ppc44x defconfigs.

While that is incremental it certainly is worth a patch on it's
own. Could you add a proper changelog and an SOB please?

Here you are.
