72# Yes, SOUND_GAMEPORT looks a bit odd. Yes, it ends up being turned on
73# in every .config. Please don't touch it. It is here to handle an
74# unusual dependency between GAMEPORT and sound drivers.
75#
76# Some sound drivers call gameport functions. If GAMEPORT is
77# not selected, empty stubs are provided for the functions and all is
78# well.
79# If GAMEPORT is built in, everything is fine.
80# If GAMEPORT is a module, however, it would need to be loaded for the
81# sound driver to be able to link properly. Therefore, the sound
82# driver must be a module as well in that case. Since there's no way
83# to express that directly in Kconfig, we use SOUND_GAMEPORT to
84# express it. SOUND_GAMEPORT boils down to "if GAMEPORT is 'm',
85# anything that depends on SOUND_GAMEPORT must be 'm' as well. if
86# GAMEPORT is 'y' or 'n', it can be anything".
