Yep :-)

No, I don't have a Versatile board, or access to one...

I have been stashing the changes here for now:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gerg/m68knommu.git
in the armnommu branch.

It should do, or at least should be able to be made to work with it.

No, probably strictly not. But without this here we lose CONFIG_GPIO
for the no-MMU case. When CONFIG_MMU was enabled it was being selected
via some other path through arch/arm/Kconfig - I don't recall at the
moment where exactly.
