    iwlwifi: fix LED dependencies · efdbfa0a
    Arnd Bergmann authored
    The dependencies for LED configuration are highly inconsistent and too
    complicated at the moment. One of the results is a randconfig failure I
    get very rarely when LEDS_CLASS is in a loadable module, but the wireless
    core is built-in:
    
    WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for MAC80211_LEDS
      Depends on [n]: NET [=y] && WIRELESS [=y] && MAC80211 [=y] && (LEDS_CLASS [=m]=y || LEDS_CLASS [=m]=MAC80211 [=y])
      Selected by [m]:
      - IWLEGACY [=m] && NETDEVICES [=y] && WLAN [=y] && WLAN_VENDOR_INTEL [=y]
      - IWLWIFI_LEDS [=y] && NETDEVICES [=y] && WLAN [=y] && WLAN_VENDOR_INTEL [=y] && IWLWIFI [=m] && (LEDS_CLASS [=m]=y || LEDS_CLASS [=m]=IWLWIFI [=m]) && (IWLMVM [=m] || IWLDVM [=m])
    
    aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k/led.o: in function `ath5k_register_led':
    led.c:(.text+0x60): undefined reference to `led_classdev_register_ext'
    aarch64-linux-ld: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k/led.o: in function `ath5k_unregister_leds':
    led.c:(.text+0x200): undefined reference to `led_classdev_unregister'
    
    For iwlwifi, the dependency is wrong, since this config prevents the
    MAC80211_LEDS code from being part of a built-in MAC80211 driver.
    
    For iwlegacy, this is worse because the driver tries to force-enable
    the other subsystems, which is both a layering violation and a bug
    because it will still fail with MAC80211=y and IWLEGACY=m, leading
    to LEDS_CLASS being a module as well.
    
    The actual link failure in the ath5k driver is a result of MAC80211_LEDS
    being enabled but not usable. With the Kconfig logic fixed in the
    Intel drivers, the ath5k driver works as expected again.
