Hi, Jani:

I tried to use 'depends on' at first. But there is a recursive dependency:

     error: recursive dependency detected!
         symbol DRM_XE depends on INTEL_VSEC
         symbol INTEL_VSEC depends on X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES
         symbol X86_PLATFORM_DEVICES is selected by DRM_XE
         For a resolution refer to 
Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.rst
     subsection "Kconfig recursive dependency limitations".


I will try it again with 'depends on', need some time to check this 
recursive
dependency problem.
