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?
