Subject: ARC: ARC_BOARD_ANGEL4 and ARC_BOARD_ML509

Hi Vineet,

Linux-next included commit c00bfd974fb0 ("ARC: [arcfpga] Get rid of
legacy BVCI latency unit support") in next-20140604. It removes the
Kconfig symbol ARC_HAS_BVCI_LAT_UNIT. And that symbol's entry is the
only place were the symbols ARC_BOARD_ANGEL4 and ARC_BOARD_ML509 are
currently used. So it follows that the entries for ARC_BOARD_ANGEL4 and
ARC_BOARD_ML509 could be removed too.

If that's correct: is the trivial patch to remove the Kconfig entries
for ARC_BOARD_ANGEL4 and ARC_BOARD_ML509 queued somewhere?

Thx for noticing this.

I'm planning to use these symbols to set up default builtin DT blobs from Kconfig
itself (rather than current defconfigs). If that doesn't workout - sure I will
remove the symbols.

Thx,
