[Xen-devel] [patch xen.git xen-tip/master] xen: fix xenbus frontend build

[Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@xxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@xxxxxxxxxx>

When a driver kconfig symbol =m and it selects another symbol,
that other symbol will also be =m (unless something else
causes it to be =y), so when XEN_BLKDEV_FRONTEND=m and/or
XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND=m, then XEN_XENBUS_FRONTEND=m, but that
won't build (build error message below).  Changing
XEN_XENBUS_FRONTEND from a tristate to a bool makes it be
=y (builtin) any time that it is selected, so there is
no build error.

arch/x86/pci/built-in.o: In function `xenbus_register_frontend':
include/xen/xenbus.h:115: undefined reference to `__xenbus_register_frontend'

OTOH, I could have goofed my git trees somehow...
