Subject: [PATCH v3] platform/x86: dell-smbios: Auto-select as needed
Date: Thu, 5 Jan 2017 09:14:43 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170105091443.3d0ab344@endymion> (raw)
Dell-smbios is a helper module, it serves no purpose on its own, so
do not present it as an option to the user. Instead, select it
automatically whenever a driver which needs it is selected.
Also select DCDBAS as needed, instead of depending on it, so that
the Dell driver options are always visible.
As a clean-up, I removed the "default n" statements as they are not
needed (n is the default default.)

Changes since v2:
* Change the subject as suggested by Andy.
* Remove "default n" as suggested by Andy.
Changes since v1:
* Select DCDBAS instead of depending on it. This is more
user-friendly and avoids the confusing transitive dependencies
which Pali didn't like.
