Comments below in case we stick to this drivers/x86 thing...

Just wrap all of the file in an if X86 ..... endif So we keep all the drivers/ stuff in one Kconfig file and not spread all over. > diff --git a/arch/x86/Makefile b/arch/x86/Makefile > index d1a47ad..a750519 100644 > --- a/arch/x86/Makefile > +++ b/arch/x86/Makefile > @@ -171,6 +171,9 @@ ifeq ($(CONFIG_X86_32),y) > drivers-$(CONFIG_FB) += arch/x86/video/ > endif > > +# x86 platform-specific drivers > +drivers-y += drivers/x86/ > + Can this be included in drivers/Makefile like this: obj-$(CONFIG_X86) += x86/ Notice that parisc already do the same. (Yes they have a drivers/parisc dir). We shall try to visit our tree in natural order when we build and such a rule breaks this. Also it is good to keep drivers/ stuff in one place. > +++ b/drivers/x86/Kconfig > @@ -0,0 +1,290 @@ > +# > +# X86 Platform Specific Drivers > +# > + > +menuconfig X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES > + bool "X86 Platform devices" > + default y > + ---help--- > + Say Y here to get to see options for device drivers for various > + x86 platforms, including vendor-specific laptop extension drivers. > + This option alone does not add any kernel code. > + > + If you say N, all options in this submenu will be skipped and disabled. > + > +if X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES > + > +config ACER_WMI > + tristate "Acer WMI Laptop Extras (EXPERIMENTAL)" spaces => tab > +config ASUS_LAPTOP > + tristate "Asus Laptop Extras (EXPERIMENTAL)" > + depends on ACPI spaces => tab > +config FUJITSU_LAPTOP > + tristate "Fujitsu Laptop Extras" > + depends on ACPI > + depends on INPUT > + depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE > + ---help--- spaces => tab > +config HP_WMI > + tristate "HP WMI extras" > + depends on ACPI_WMI > + depends on INPUT > + depends on RFKILL > + help > + Say Y here if you want to support WMI-based hotkeys on HP laptops and spaces => tab > + to read data from WMI such as docking or ambient light sensor state. > + > + To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will > + be called hp-wmi. > + > +config MSI_LAPTOP > + tristate "MSI Laptop Extras" > + depends on ACPI > + depends on BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE > + ---help--- spaces => tab > diff --git a/drivers/x86/Makefile b/drivers/x86/Makefile > new file mode 100644 > index 0000000..4f14f28 > --- /dev/null > +++ b/drivers/x86/Makefile > @@ -0,0 +1,17 @@ > +# > +# x86 Platform-Specific Drivers > +# > +obj- := x86.o # Dummy rule to force built-in.o to be made This is not needed. I can see divers/misc uses the same but it is bogus.
