[PATCH v3] platform/x86: dell-smbios: Auto-select as needed

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Dell-smbios is a helper module, it serves no purpose on its own, so
do not present it as an option to the user. Instead, select it
automatically whenever a driver which needs it is selected.

Also select DCDBAS as needed, instead of depending on it, so that
the Dell driver options are always visible.

As a clean-up, I removed the "default n" statements as they are not
needed (n is the default default.)

Changes since v2:
 * Change the subject as suggested by Andy.
 * Remove "default n" as suggested by Andy.
Changes since v1:
 * Select DCDBAS instead of depending on it. This is more
   user-friendly and avoids the confusing transitive dependencies
   which Pali didn't like.
