If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From f8086d1a65ac693e3fd863128352b4b11ee7324d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 25 Feb 2023 21:39:53 -0800 Subject: serial: 8250: ASPEED_VUART: select REGMAP instead of depending on it From: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit f8086d1a65ac693e3fd863128352b4b11ee7324d upstream. REGMAP is a hidden (not user visible) symbol. Users cannot set it directly thru "make *config", so drivers should select it instead of depending on it if they need it. Consistently using "select" or "depends on" can also help reduce Kconfig circular dependency issues. Therefore, change the use of "depends on REGMAP" to "select REGMAP".
