Bug#715370: Acknowledgement (linux-image-3.9-1-486: CONFIG_GPIO_CS5535 has been set to 'y' when it should be 'M')



right.  having enormous difficulty tracking this down, but there
appears to be some kernel config dependencies of CONFIG_GPIO_CS5535
which are set to "Y" which are forcing CONFIG_GPIO_CS5535 to "y".

... but that actually turns out not to be the main problem: the main
problem is that although GPIO_CS5535 has been converted (since 3.2.0)
to the standard GPIO format, CONFIG_GPIO_SYSFS isn't set, making it
impossible to gain access to it!

as this is for an AMD Geode LX (PC-Engines alix6f2), gaining access to
the GPIO in order to pull relays, change the LED status and so on, is
somewhat essential.

could i therefore request that CONFIG_GPIO_SYSFS be set to Y so that
GPIO - which is protected by having to explicitly take action in
userspace in order to gain access to it anyway - is accessible?
