What about gpio-pxa ? And maybe pinctrl-pxa27x (only in linux-next by now) ? Can
a pxafb work without gpio-pxa ? Also usually for pxafb you have pwm and pwm_bl

Ok. Is pxa2xx-pcmcia out of scope ? I seem to remember we have several boards
where pcmcia is the rootfs (even if that is a small mess right now I still have
to work on). Or do we consider pcmcia as obsolete ?
