Hi All,

I am not sure which version of patch is being picked here.

Latest version is v8 and it is a "patch set" and it do enable 
CONFIG_MEMORY in powerpc/configs

1.  driver/memory:Move Freescale IFC driver to a common driver
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/315531/

2. powerpc/config: Enable memory driver
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/315532/

Regards,
Prabhakar
