Great, thanks.

I don't have a tree with both combined. I guess there is a branch in

https://github.com/MISL-EBU-System-SW/mainline-public.git

with it.

I suspect that comes from multiplatform.

If you disable SATA, you can disable these two.  We have had so much
breakage with this, that i want to keep away from it for a while to
let it settle. I can then go back and see about making it truly
optional.

This has nothing directly to do with this patchset. Please could you
supply a patch?

At the moment, we need PCI in order to get the SoC ID. Gregory has a
patch which will help with this, only selecting the minimum
needed. However, ARCH_KIRKWOOD selected both PCI and PCI_QUIRKS, so i
think removing them should be in a separate cleanup patch, which can
follow once the series is accepted. I added the POWER_* and
REGULATOR_* options. I will move them into mvebu_v5_defconfig and
multi_v5_defconfig instead.
 
> Maybe make them forced if !EMBEDDED or something?

I think we first need to define what EMBEDDED means. For me a NAS is
an embedded system, and it is various NAS boxes which want these.
 
> Shouldn't USE_OF and OF_IRQ be in ARCH_MVEBU?

Probably. I'm guessing the others are getting these from
multi_v7_defconfig. I would say this again is something for a cleanup
patch once the series is merged. Dove is also not too far away from
moving in, so i think it makes sense to look at things like this once
we have the complete picture.
