[PATCH] platform/x86: dell: Fix ALIENWARE_WMI dependencies
From: Kurt Borja
Date: Sun Mar 09 2025 - 12:34:45 EST
If ACPI_PLATFORM_PROFILE is selected by ALIENWARE_WMI_WMAX, the former
is forced to be at least =m, because the latter is a bool.
This allows the following config:
CONFIG_ALIENWARE_WMI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PLATFORM_PROFILE=m
which causes a linking error, because ALIENWARE_WMI_WMAX is only used to
conditionally link alienware-wmi-wmax.c to the alienware-wmi kernel
object, which might not be a module.
Move the ACPI_PLATFORM_PROFILE reverse dependency to ALIENWARE_WMI to
fix this issue.
