Shouldn’t driver depend on it rather than selecting it?

Suggested approach will end up changing the way its done on other SOCs,
Currently all the SOCs select ARM_AMBA at there machine level Kconfig 
rather than each individual driver selecting it.

Am open to do it either way but doing it the way it exists is the 
something more acceptable I thought.


thanks,
