Subject: [PATCH 1/2] i8k - Move Kconfig entry to drivers/char
Date: Fri, 08 Feb 2008 12:47:26 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080208124726.16369.81528.stgit@localhost> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20080208124721.16369.76502.stgit@localhost>
The source code for this driver is currently located in drivers/char, and
given that this is not an x86 processor feature, it shouldn't live in the
x86 Kconfig.
So lets move it to the Kconfig for drivers/char instead, and just add
a dependency on x86.
