IIRC, this all started with tinification and wanting dynamic posix
clocks to be optional at compile time.
I would like to simplify this whole mess:
- restore dynamic posix clocks to be always included
- make PHC always included when the MAC has that feature (by saying
"select" in the MAC Kconfig) -- I think this is what davem had
wanted back in the day ...
I'm not against tinification in principle, but I believe it is a lost
cause.
Thanks,
Richard
