If one of the earlier patches in the series fails to build you need to fix that patch so you don't break bisection or cause people to spend time finding errors in the earlier patches you fix later. In any case this doesn't do what the commit log says, ACPI is supported on at least arm64 so if you genuinely need an x86 dependency ACPI isn't going to cut it and COMPILE_TEST means the driver will still be built on everything. I don't recall anything from 0day that looked like it was anything to do with dependencies though.

No, you should fix the actual problem - like I say it looked like just a regular coding error, not something due to an actual dependency.

Thanks for reviewing this patch series, however we have decided to drop this patch series and our partner (Cirrus) will send the new patch series with more finer changes. Regards Nehal Shah
