OK. What did you have in mind for the help text. I changed it
a small bit.

I also added "depends on LEDS_CLASS" since defconfig didn't have that
set, but the build failed with wanting symbols that it provides.

Updated patch:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com>

Add I2C to config since the driver makes several i2c*() calls.

Add to help text that the Intel I2C ICH (i801) driver is also needed
for this kernel.

Add LEDS_CLASS to config since the driver makes les_classdev_*() calls:
ERROR: "led_classdev_register" [drivers/input/misc/apanel.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "__led_classdev_unregister" [drivers/input/misc/apanel.ko] undefined!

To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will
