#1708479 — [PATCH] kernel/watchdog: fix Kconfig constraints for perf hardlockup watchdog

Subject[PATCH] kernel/watchdog: fix Kconfig constraints for perf hardlockup watchdog
Message-ID<ucU8q-51N-23@gated-at.bofh.it>
Patch 05a4a9527931 ("kernel/watchdog: split up config options") lost
the perf-based hardlockup detector's dependency on PERF_EVENTS, which
can result in broken builds with some powerpc configurations.

Restore the dependency. Add it in for x86 too, despite x86 always
selecting PERF_EVENTS it seems reasonable to make the dependency
explicit.

This is because ppc has the unusual configuration of supporting HARDLOCKUP
through perf or directly through the arch, right?  The Kconfigs assumed an
arch went one way or the other.

I think this is a good workaround for now.
