that's what i thought, but i'll look more closely to see if there's
some subtlety there.
at the very least, i can submit a patch for both:
* .../pci/Kconfig
* .../pci/pcie/Kconfig
that removes all the extraneous dependencies on PCI and PCIEPORTBUS,
respectively, and just wraps the files in a single "if" condition,
unless someone has a reason why that wouldn't work. you know, along
the lines of acpi/Kconfig and many others:
menuconfig ACPI
bool "ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) Support"
... snip ...
if ACPI
... big snip, entire rest of file ...
endif # ACPI
