| |
Similarly to DCDBAS for DELL_SMBIOS_SMM, if DELL_SMBIOS_WMI is enabled, DELL_SMBIOS becomes dependent on ACPI_WMI. Update the depends line to prevent a configuration where DELL_SMBIOS=y and either backend dependency =m. Update the comment accordingly.

Linus, just a heads up on this. Unlikely you would encounter this in your builds, but just in case, I wanted you to know we (0-day) caught it and are verifying the fix.
