This patch just landed in linux-next (ie, in next-20140501).

The patch that added this symbol (and the related driver) was submitted
in https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/21/25 . It's not (yet) included in
linux-next. Is it queued somewhere else?

The plan to add MMC_SDHCI_OF_476GTR seems to have been abandoned (see
the discussion of https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/2/21/24 ). So this select
is not needed. Should I submit a trivial patch to drop this select?
