From 835ea93e9d266dee03b11926656bb52d99b3d274 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Mon, 30 May 2016 20:58:01 +0200 Subject: char/genrtc: remove powerpc support PowerPC is the last architecture using the GEN_RTC driver on some machines, but we can migrate them all to using the RTC_DRV_GENERIC driver instead now. This moves over the CONFIG_GEN_RTC option from drivers/char into arch/powerpc/platforms/Kconfig and makes it just select the replacement driver instead, for the only reason of not breaking existing defconfig and .config files that users may have.
