You're commenting on the patch that is *removed* so it's not really
where a change should be done. However, I've added the reference to the
upstream commit in the patch added by Andrew, indeed.

You need to propagate the dependencies when you're doing a select, i.e:

config BR2_PACKAGE_FOO
	depends on BR2_ARM_EABIHF

config BR2_PACKAGE_BAR
	select BR2_PACKAGE_FOO

is wrong, because BR2_PACKAGE_BAR should replicate the "depends on
BR2_ARM_EABIHF".

However, in the case here, xdriver_xf86-video-imx-viv does:

	depends on BR2_PACKAGE_IMX_GPU_VIV_OUTPUT_X11

so we're good (i.e it doesn't "select" the imx-gpu-viv package).
