Hi Jeff,

I've disabled many drivers that can only be used on embedded hardware. While I don't doubt that there are users out there playing with Linux on embedded hardware - I do doubt that they're using an openSUSE-built kernel RPM. The disabled modules include voltage regulators, multifunction devices that are typically found on SoCs, IIO sensor drivers, SPI drivers, and drivers only used on Intel Medfield or Moorestown. I2C_INTEL_MID would be a candidate too then? Yes indeed. After a bit more digging I found some others as well.
Also disabled: CONFIG_SFI MTD_NAND_DENALI SERIAL_MRST_MAX3110 DRM_GMA600 SPI_DW_MID_DMA APDS9802ALS
CONFIG_IWM could probably be disabled as well, but the description just says "typically found on Moorestown". Does anyone happen to know if these devices exist as standalone SD cards that can be used elsewhere?
Is SPI also limited to embedded devices? It seems like that's the case. That results in the following options turning off:
I think SD/MMC can operate in SPI mode.
Do you have examples of non-embedded hardware that does this?
No. Maybe some special SD cards (wifi SD cards or things like that)? I know there are also some sensors (e.g. temperature) on motherboards or graphics cards which use i2c or spi interfaces but I do not know if something special must be enabled in the kernel. It should be safe to disable SPI related things in non-ARM kernels.
