    usb: host: make USB_ARCH_HAS_?HCI obsolete · d9ea21a7
    Arnd Bergmann authored
    The three options USB_ARCH_HAS_{EHCI,OHCI,XHCI} are all well beyond
    their recommended shelf life. They have caused numerous build failures
    over the years because they are never completely correct, and with
    the move to splitting out the platform specific back-ends out of the
    driver, there is no real need for them any more. Also, the use of making
    USB_ARCH_HAS_HCD depend on it is questionable since one can always enable
    dummy_hc these days.
    
    This patch enables them unconditionally for all platforms and
    architectures, which means it is now possible to build host controller
    drivers for machines that are known not to come with this hardware,
    but that is just how we treat most other drivers.
    
    In order to minimise the impact on existing architecture code and
    defconfig files, all the Kconfig are left present for now. All platforms
    that currently do 'select USB_ARCH_HAS_*' should subsequently be changed
    not to select that. All drivers depending on USB_ARCH_HAS_HCD should
    be changed to depend on USB_SUPPORT instead.
