Hi Lee,

your commit d0c9e350b9a4 ("watchdog: st_wdt: Add new driver for ST's
LPC Watchdog") is in today's linux-next tree (i.e., next-20150601) and
adds the following lines of code to drivers/watchdog/Kconfig.

+config ST_LPC_WATCHDOG
...
+       select MFD_ST_LPC

The select turns out to be a NOOP since MFD_ST_LPC is not defined
Kconfig.  Is it the correct option to be selected?  I could not find a
similar option in the source, nor get any hints  from searching the
lkml.

I detected the issue with ./scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py by diffing
the last and today's linux tree.

Kind regards,
 Valentin

You're right.  This symbol is legacy.  I will remove.

Thanks for reporting.
