Subject[RFC v1 2/2] x86: kconfig: remove UP [IO]APIC options
Date
From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@suse.com>

These were here mostly to help as wrappers for PCI_MSI
under certain UP 32-bit build scenarios, now that PCI_MSI
properly selects what it needs and when it needs it these
Kconfig options are now only enabling users reduce the size
of 32-bit kernels optionally. Since 32-bit kernels are not
in a huge state of flux and since there is no penalty for
adding APIC support other than a bit of size moving forward
we simply expect folks to enable APIC options on 32-bit systems
when a system needs it, as with PCI_MSI. This lets us remove
clutter from the x86 Kconfig file.
