This is a weird corner case, I had to dig up the syntax:

config DELL_SMBIOS
	depends on DCDBAS || DCDBAS=n

Is what we want. BUT. We only want that if DELL_SMBIOS_SMM, which
unforunately causes a circular dependency (sort of, but it complains, so
it won't fly)

I'm working on this between conference sessions. Will report back when I
sort it out.
