Ah, now I have caught up, I'll go with the same no strong opinions.
Looks like it is 2 to one in favour of the explicit i2c / spi bits so
lets go with the original form.

Sorry for wasting your time on this Eva!

Divide is always between simplifying configurability of the kernel
vs minimising the extra code built that isn't needed.  Never entirely
obvious where that boundary falls and it really doesn't make that
much difference on either side.

Anyhow, at least you know the options and arguments either way now
so not completely wasted time.

Thanks,

Jonathan
