PATCH 1/1 platform/x86/intel: Remove X86_PLATFORM_DRIVERS_INTEL

While introduction of this menu brings a nice view in the configuration tools, it brought more issues than solves, i.e. it prevents to locate files in the intel/ subfolder without touching non-related Kconfig dependencies elsewhere. Drop X86_PLATFORM_DRIVERS_INTEL altogether.

Note, on x86 it's enabled by default and it's quite unlikely anybody wants to disable all of the modules in this submenu.

Fixes 8bd836feb6ca ("platform/x86: intel_skl_int3472: Move to intel/ subfolder")

Hi,

Quoted 11 lines · Andy Shevchenko

While introduction of this menu brings a nice view in the configuration tools, it brought more issues than solves, i.e. it prevents to locate files in the intel/ subfolder without touching non-related Kconfig dependencies elsewhere. Drop X86_PLATFORM_DRIVERS_INTEL altogether.

Note, on x86 it's enabled by default and it's quite unlikely anybody wants to disable all of the modules in this submenu.

Fixes 8bd836feb6ca ("platform/x86: intel_skl_int3472: Move to intel/ subfolder")

Thank you for your patch, I've applied this patch to my review-hans branch:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pdx86/platform-drivers-x86.git/log/?h=review-hans

Note it will show up in my review-hans branch once I've pushed my local branch there, which might take a while.

Once I've run some tests on this branch the patches there will be added to the platform-drivers-x86/for-next branch and eventually will be included in the pdx86 pull-request to Linus for the next merge-window.

Regards,

Hans
