Subjectkconfig re-asks questions if a new dependency is added
Hi Roman,

my "schedule obsolete OSS drivers for removal" patch does the following:

...
+config OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER
+ bool "Obsolete OSS drivers"
+ depends on SOUND_PRIME
...
config SOUND_BT878
tristate "BT878 audio dma"
- depends on SOUND_PRIME && PCI
+ depends on SOUND_PRIME && PCI && OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER
...

The probem is when I'm running "make oldconfig" after applying this
patch and say yes to OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER, I'm re-asked all the options
now depending on OBSOLETE_OSS_DRIVER I had previously selected.

This is not a big issue in this specific case, but in other cases this
might be quite annoying.

Adrian
