    Yep, but that's OK. None of those selected symbols are hard dependencies
    of AKEBONO, they're just things you probably want in your kernel to
    actually boot on an akebono board.

    It will build cleanly, it just won't necessarily boot on a real board.
    Users who enable AKEBONO manually need to know what they're doing, or
    they should just use the defconfig.

    Changing the defconfig doesn't help randconfig, but dropping the selects
    does.

    Anyway I'll send a proper version of my patch, which I'm pretty
    confident will fix all the issues.

    cheers
