Subject[PATCH] kbuild : Make Fusion MPT selectable from "Device drivers" menu

Rewrite the Fusion MPT Kconfig file so that all of MPT functionality
is entirely selectable from "Device drivers."

Signed-off-by: Robert P. J. Day <rpjday@mindspring.com>

---

The original Kconfig file seems to have an odd structure, as you can
see from the first part of the file:

========================================================
menu "Fusion MPT device support"

config FUSION
bool
default n

config FUSION_SPI
tristate "Fusion MPT ScsiHost drivers for SPI"
depends on PCI && SCSI
select FUSION
select SCSI_SPI_ATTRS
...
========================================================

note how the majority of entries in that file don't directly
*depend* on FUSION. instead, they depend on *external* config
variables, and *select* FUSION, and this is not the only place i've
noticed that kind of dependency wording.

is that a regular feature? having that structure certainly makes it
slightly more difficult to rewrite the menu entries, and it's not
clear there's any obvious advantage to doing it that way.

If unsure whether you really want or need this, say N.
