Hi,
Why do you need this patch? You should explain that in the (missing)
patch description.
I suppose that it could be done like this, but currently any $ARCH that
wants to use drivers/firmware/Kconfig does so in the arch/$ARCH/Kconfig file:
arch> grep firmware/Kconfig */Kconfig
arm/Kconfig:source "arch/arm/firmware/Kconfig"
arm/Kconfig:source "drivers/firmware/Kconfig"
arm64/Kconfig:source "drivers/firmware/Kconfig"
blackfin/Kconfig:source "drivers/firmware/Kconfig"
ia64/Kconfig:source "drivers/firmware/Kconfig"
mips/Kconfig:source "drivers/firmware/Kconfig"
x86/Kconfig:source "drivers/firmware/Kconfig"
so all of these would need to be removed.
