PATCH 1/1 ACPI EC driver on ia64

Hi,

I need an ACPI EC driver on my IA64 machine. Currently CONFIG_ACPI_EC depends on X86, so I cannot build ACPI EC driver on ia64. I tested ACPI EC driver on ia64 with my special Kconfig, and it seemed to work well. Could you consider applying the following patch to enable ACPI EC driver on ia64?

Thanks,
Kenji Kaneshige

This patch enables ACPI EC driver on ia64.

Why not just remove the "depends on" altogether? I don't see anything in ec.c that's architecture-dependent.

Why not just remove the "depends on" altogether? I don't see anything in ec.c that's architecture-dependent.

Only the reason was I didn't have x86_64 machine for testing ACPI EC driver. But I think "depends on" should be removed, as you said.

I'm attaching the updated patch.

Thanks,
Kenji Kaneshige

This patch removes "depends on X86" from config ACPI_EC. With this patch, ACPI EC driver will be built also on x86_64 and ia64.
