Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: Kconfig: Fix dell-laptop dependency chain.
As reported by Randy Dunlap:
>> WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for DELL_SMBIOS
>> Depends on [m]: X86 [=y] && X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES [=y]
>> && (DCDBAS [=m] ||
>> DCDBAS [=m]=n) && (ACPI_WMI [=n] || ACPI_WMI [=n]=n)
>> Selected by [y]:

Right now it's possible to set dell laptop to compile in but this
causes dell-smbios to compile in which breaks if dcdbas is a module.
Dell laptop shouldn't select dell-smbios anymore, but depend on it.
