[Xen-devel] tiny kconf patch



Hello!

Attached you will find another tiny patch. This time it is to 
linux-2.6.10-xen-sparse/arch/xen/Kconfig.

This Patch addresses the following issue:
 * XEN_BLKDEV_BACKEND needs XEN_PHYSDEV_ACCESS to build,
   so depend on it.
 * Same applies to XEN_NETDEV_BACKEND.
 * XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND_PIPELINED_TRANSMITTER now depends on
   XEN_NETDEV_FRONTEND. I hope that is the right thing to do:-)
 * XEN_BLKDEV_TAP_BE now depends on XEN_NETDEV_BACKEND.
 * The CPU type choice was moved into the XEN menu. I find it highly
   confusing to set XEN-macros in the top level menu.

I was thinking about replacing the default-lines in the XEN_PHYSDEV_ACCESS 
config to read "default XEN_PRIVILEGED_GUEST", but then that would stop 
everybody from using a dom0 without HW access (i.e. to setup the other 
domains only with a dedecated domain for block and network IO) as you could 
no longer turn off PHYSDEV_ACCESS in PRIVILEGED_GUESTs.

I hope you will find this tiny patch acceptable.
