--- Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt --- - input prompt: "prompt" <prompt> ["if" <expr>] Every menu entry can have at most one prompt, which is used to display to the user. Optionally dependencies only for this prompt can be added with "if". ---
This is misleading, since the "if" will not affect only the prompt, but also the config option.
Therefore I can't use config SGI_IOC4 tristate prompt "SGI IOC4 Base IO support" if PROMPT_FOR_UNUSED_CORES depends on (IA64_GENERIC || IA64_SGI_SN2) && MMTIMER default n
to hide this option unless PROMPT_FOR_UNUSED_CORES is selected.
Since the "if" is useless, misleading and redundand with this behaviour, I suggest stripping it out.
