If there are no other comments or objections, I'll queue this for v4.11. Based on this last comment: eg, using def_tristate you get: # CONFIG_VFIO_IOMMU_SPAPR_TCE is not set # CONFIG_VFIO is not set Whereas using depends all you get is: # CONFIG_VFIO is not set I prefer prefer the solution here that doesn't leave extra unselected config entries when CONFIG_VFIO is also not selected.
