[PATCH] eeepc-laptop: Fix build failure with HOTPLUG_PCI && !SYSFS(was: [git pull request] ACPI & driver patches for 2.6.31-rc1)

[Ingo Molnar]

FYI, there's a post-rc1 build regression with certain configs:

 drivers/built-in.o: In function `pci_hp_deregister':
 (.text+0xb166): undefined reference to `pci_hp_remove_module_link'
 drivers/built-in.o: In function `pci_hp_deregister':
 (.text+0xb19f): undefined reference to `pci_destroy_slot'
 drivers/built-in.o: In function `__pci_hp_register':
 (.text+0xb583): undefined reference to `pci_create_slot'
 drivers/built-in.o: In function `__pci_hp_register':
 (.text+0xb5b1): undefined reference to `pci_hp_create_module_link'
 make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

|     eeepc-laptop: Register as a pci-hotplug device

The problem is caused by this portion of the commit:

          This driver supports the Fn-Fx keys on Eee PC laptops.

We never select CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI, as it is a non-trivial, 
interactive, many-child-dependencies configuration option.

The select caused partial dependencies to be instantiated by the 
Kconfig language, and allowed the PCI hotplug core code to be built 
without SYSFS - so drivers/pci/slot.c wasnt built but was being 
relied on.

The complexity of select statements is already a warning sign that 
something unusual is done here. They should be avoided generally, 
except for clear-cut 'leaf' modules.

The patch below fixes the build failure by turning the select lines 
into a single 'depends on' line. There's no significant reduction in 
utility of the driver: it already has a list of dependencies, and 
basically all distros enable hotplug-pci anyway.
