Subject: [PATCH v2 00/14] Kconfig cleanup (PARPORT_PC dependencies)

This patch series removes the messy dependencies from PARPORT_PC
by having it depend on one symbol (ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_PARPORT) and
having architectures which need it, select ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_PARPORT
in arch/*/Kconfig.

New architectures are unlikely to need PARPORT_PC, so this avoids
having an ever growing list of architectures to exclude. Those
architectures which do select ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_PARPORT in this
patch are the ones which have an asm/parport.h (or use the generic
version).

V1 or this patch can be found here:

  http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-arch/msg23167.html

V2 changes:

  * Use select instead of adding config option to arch/*/Kconfig
  * Split into multiple patches for individual architectures
  * Dropped tile architecture
