If you use patman it will take these out for you automatically without
you having to think about it.

This is a temporary measure until the SPL series is applied to dm/next
at least (I expect sometime this month). While driver model is
available before relocation, the Tegra GPIO driver is not marked in
the device tree with "u-boot,dm-pre-reloc", so is not available this
early. Device tree additions give Stephen a headache, and I decided it
was better for it not to work for now, and just use the SPL function.

There are three stages to consider:

1. SPL
2. U-Boot, before relocation
3. U-Boot, after relocation

At present, driver model does not support 1 (see dm/spl-working for
patches if you want to see this). It supports 2 but only for drivers
marked pre-relocation (except serial, for which a hack forces the
console to be bound and used in the device tree case without the
u-boot,dm-pre-reloc marker). It supports 3 fully.

There is a bit of an update on current status here:

http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/DriverModel

My approach with driver model is incremental, since that's the only
way to make any progress.

This should work:

ifndef CONFIG_SPL_BUILD
obj-y += tamonten.o
endif

But it seems odd to me. At least on seaboard I didn't get the SPL
message unless this code was executed.
