Kconfig fails: big select-based circular dependency

[Russell King - ARM Linux]

This is getting silly:

scripts/kconfig/conf --silentoldconfig Kconfig
drivers/dma/Kconfig:5:error: recursive dependency detected!
drivers/dma/Kconfig:5:  symbol DMADEVICES is selected by SAMSUNG_DMADEV
arch/arm/plat-samsung/Kconfig:412:      symbol SAMSUNG_DMADEV is selected by S3C64XX_PL080

drivers/video/backlight/Kconfig:156:    symbol BACKLIGHT_CLASS_DEVICE is selected by FB_MX3
drivers/video/fbdev/Kconfig:2333:       symbol FB_MX3 depends on MX3_IPU
drivers/dma/Kconfig:121:        symbol MX3_IPU depends on DMADEVICES

This is a good illustration why the select disease is truely bad...
