Sure, my aim here was to only solve the _build breakage_ by fixing the Kconfig for this module (that used code from another kernel module without listing it in its dependencies). If, as you say, the real solution is that we should actually be taking out the offending call to the other module itself, then please go ahead -- I don't know much about the Bluetooth / HIDP subsytem anyway.
