    ALSA: hda - Make CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_* tristate · 595fe1b7
    Takashi Iwai 提交于
    So far, CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_* kconfigs have been booleans due to
    historical reasons.  The major reason was that the automatic codec
    driver probing wouldn't work if user sets a codec driver as a module
    while the controller driver as a built-in.  And, another reason was to
    avoid exporting symbols of the helper codes when all drivers are built
    in.
    
    But, this sort of "kindness" rather confuses people in the end,
    especially makes the config refinement via localmodconfig unhappy.
    Also, a codec module would still work if you re-bind the controller
    driver via sysfs (although it's no automatic loading), so there might
    be a slight use case.
    
    That said, better to let people fallen into a pitfall than being too
    smart and restrict something.  Let's make things straightforward: now
    all CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_* become tristate, and all symbols exported
    unconditionally.
