The PnP errors are due to an overly broad Kconfig dependency list, and
are resolved with the following patch:
<https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/5/1/100>. This patch should be applied first
to prevent the PnP build for X86_64, when the X86_32 dependency is
decoupled from the ISA Kconfig option in this current patch.

See <https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/4/11/421> for the history behind these
two patches.
