viafb: Add transitive dependencies via gpiolib
PATCH 1/1 viafb: Add transitive dependencies via gpiolib
FB_VIA now selects GPIOLIB, but that is not available on all architectures. Change FB_VIA dependencies to include GPIOLIB dependencies.
---
I think the better solution is to make GPIOLIB available for all platforms, but this will deal with the problem in the short term (i.e. for 2.6.35).

If you can find a via chipset on anything not x86 I'd be impressed.

If it's really restricted to x86 then that should be added to its dependencies instead.

True.
The new VIA ARM tablets aside I don't know anything non-x86 from VIA. And even if there exists anything non-x86 that includes these IGPs I really doubt that the driver is close to supporting it. Hell I do even wonder whether it works well on 64 bit but unless there are bug reports that's nothing I worry about.

Agreed. The right fix is almost certainly to just have FB_VIA depend on X86.
