The depends on will prevent the PWM driver from being built until MFD becomes available, so the missing header file shouldn't be a problem. That said, Nicolas Ferre (Cc'ing) at some point requested this to become a select (or at least for the DRM driver, but I guess the same applies to PWM) on the grounds that a depends on will make it more difficult to enable the driver. So we have two options here: 1) turn the select into a depends on here and allow the dependency to be resolved that way, or 2) solve the dependency by making sure the MFD part is merged first (either by pulling the MFD tree into the PWM and DRM trees or waiting for a full cycle for the MFD changes to land). I don't mind either way. Thierry
