Since OMAP_GPMC is not visible it cannot be enabled via defconfig file.
I tried to make it visible in earlier revision of this patchset but it looks
like OMAP_GPMC config was meant to be not a visible option form the beginning.

All legacy platforms have been selecting it in some way or the other but I agree
with you that selecting it at SOC level may not be the best option.

If not here, any suggestions where should I select it from? Maybe from
mtd/nand/raw/Kconfig if GPMC NAND driver is enabled?

cheers,
