"select ACPI_VIDEO" cause recursive dependency when "depends on HWMON"
is added:
drivers/hwmon/Kconfig:6:error: recursive dependency detected!
drivers/hwmon/Kconfig:6: symbol HWMON is selected by EEEPC_LAPTOP
drivers/platform/x86/Kconfig:326: symbol EEEPC_LAPTOP depends on ACPI_VIDEO
drivers/acpi/Kconfig:208: symbol ACPI_VIDEO is selected by ACER_WMI
drivers/platform/x86/Kconfig:173: symbol ACER_WMI depends on HWMON
Replace the select with depends on to avoid this problem when the next
patch in this series adds "depends on HWMON".
There is a stub defined for the used acpi_video_get_backlight_type()
function when ACPI_VIDEO is not set, so use:
depends on ACPI_VIDEO || ACPI_VIDEO = n

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
