Hi
I am tailoring a kernel for AMD 2400g on ASRock B450 using 5.18.12 as base.
I found a feature I don't believe I need, and the system seems to work just
fine without it. A quick glance at the code seems like I'll be just fine, too.
In /drivers/platform/x86/Kconfig:1159 I altered the text to:

config PMC_ATOM
bool "Intel Atom SOC Power Management Controller Driver"
default y
depends on PCI
select COMMON_CLK

Please have a look and decide if x86 must include this code to function properly.
Nothing but being x86 selects this. 'default y' was chosen only because forced y before.
