From e383e871ab54f073c2a798a9e0bde7f1d0528de8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Krzysztof Kozlowski krzk@kernel.org Date: Thu, 30 Jan 2020 20:55:24 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: npcm: Bring back GPIOLIB support
The CONFIG_ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB is gone since commit 65053e1a7743 ("gpio: delete ARCH_[WANTS_OPTIONAL|REQUIRE]_GPIOLIB") and all platforms should explicitly select GPIOLIB to have it.

This isn't needed on 4.14 and older since 7bffa14c9aed ("arm: npcm: add basic support for Nuvoton BMCs") was added after 4.14.
