Subject: [PATCH 00/10] Kconfig: cleanup SERIO_I8042 dependencies
Date: Sat, 14 Dec 2013 11:59:26 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1387040376-26906-1-git-send-email-msalter@redhat.com> (raw)

This patch series removes the messy dependencies from SERIO_I8042
by having it depend on one variable (ARCH_MAY_HAVE_PC_SERIO) and
having architectures which need it select that variable in
arch/*/Kconfig.

New architectures are unlikely to need SERIO_I8042, so this avoids
having an ever growing list of architectures to exclude. If an
architecture without i8042 support isn't excluded through the
dependency list for SERIO_I8042 or through explicit disabling in
a config, it will likely panic on boot with something similar to
this (from arm64):
