Did you mean X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES here?

With that, Reviewed-by: Lucas De Marchi <lucas.demarchi at intel.com>

I see several drivers selecting
X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES though. Maybe they should also be translated to
dependencies instead?

$ git grep "select X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES"       
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/Kconfig:     select X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES if ACPI && X86
drivers/gpu/drm/gma500/Kconfig: select X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES if ACPI               
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/Kconfig:   select X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES if ACPI               
drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/Kconfig:        select X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES if ACPI && X86
drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/Kconfig: select X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES if ACPI && X86        

thanks
