Make if easier for more architectures to select it and thus disable
drivers that use virt_to_bus().

Don't we typically put the burden of selecting Kconfig flags for deprecated
features on the existing architectures that provide the deprecated features?

I.e. shouldn't it be ARCH_HAS_VIRT_TO_BUS, selected by the architectures
that need it, instead?

Very nice, I was recently looking into enabling this for ARM
as well, at least for the platforms that are known to not
need virt_to_bus.

I was just wondering what the status of this patch is? It was in -next
for a while but seems to have disappeared.

Cheers

Yeah, I think Andrew dropped it in favour of a more complete solution
which I haven't written yet.   Let me dig out the emails and have a shot.
