Hi Greg,
I think you have missed 6ed66c3ce095ae65bbc976b5817c318653745736 for the v4.14-stable tree. No backport needed, it will apply cleanly.
No, I didn't miss it, it failed to apply to 4.17.y and I sent out rejection emails. Why would I apply it to 4.14.y if it is not in 4.17.y?
But it was added in v4.17-rc4.6 via: 7fe3fa3b5ec8 ("platform/x86: Kconfig: Fix dell-laptop dependency chain.")
in v4.16.8 via: 0897d3c34dae ("platform/x86: Kconfig: Fix dell-laptop dependency chain.")
missing only in v4.14.y.
The attached patch should be good for 4.14-stable.
But now I have a little confusion here, the commit says that it fixes 32d7b19bad96 which was added in v4.16. So, is it needed in 4.14.y?
Added Mario for his comments.
