The newly added GPIO driver for winbond chipsets causes a
circular dependency warning in Kconfig:
drivers/gpio/Kconfig:13:error: recursive dependency detected!
drivers/gpio/Kconfig:13: symbol GPIOLIB is selected by STX104
drivers/iio/adc/Kconfig:699: symbol STX104 depends on ISA_BUS_API
arch/Kconfig:830: symbol ISA_BUS_API is selected by GPIO_WINBOND
drivers/gpio/Kconfig:701: symbol GPIO_WINBOND depends on GPIOLIB
The underlying problem is that ISA_BUS_API is not meant to be selected by
device drivers, instead it is provided by the architectures that support
ISA add-on card devices, or in case of x86 have this explicitly enabled.
This particular driver appears to be different from the other ISA_BUS_API
based drivers, in that it is not normally an add-on card (ISA or PC104)
but instead is an LPC-attached component on the mainboard. We already
support other functionality provided by this chip, at least
drivers/watchdog/w83627hf_wdt.c and drivers/hwmon/w83627ehf.c, plus
there is a discovery function for this hardware in
drivers/parport/parport_pc.c.
If we want to use this driver without having to enable CONFIG_EXPERT,
it might be better to not use the isa_bus_type for it, but rather
turn it into a platform_driver, acpi_driver or add an MFD for it that
is shared with the wdt and hwmon portions and does the probing.
For now, this patch fixes the dependency by changing 'select' into
'depends on'.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
