[PATCH] staging: ralink-gdma: fix kconfig dependency bug for DMA_RALINK

From: Necip Fazil Yildiran
Date: Wed Nov 04 2020 - 13:16:34 EST


When DMA_RALINK is enabled and DMADEVICES is disabled, it results in the
following Kbuild warnings:

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for DMA_ENGINE
Depends on [n]: DMADEVICES [=n]
Selected by [y]:
- DMA_RALINK [=y] && STAGING [=y] && RALINK [=y] && !SOC_RT288X [=n]

WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for DMA_VIRTUAL_CHANNELS
Depends on [n]: DMADEVICES [=n]
Selected by [y]:
- DMA_RALINK [=y] && STAGING [=y] && RALINK [=y] && !SOC_RT288X [=n]

The reason is that DMA_RALINK selects DMA_ENGINE and DMA_VIRTUAL_CHANNELS
without depending on or selecting DMADEVICES while DMA_ENGINE and
DMA_VIRTUAL_CHANNELS are subordinate to DMADEVICES. This can also fail
building the kernel as demonstrated in a bug report.

Honor the kconfig dependency to remove unmet direct dependency warnings
and avoid any potential build failures.
