Avoid accidental configurations by setting default y for DELL_SMBIOS
backends. Avoid this impacting the default build size, by making them
dependent on DELL_SMBIOS, so they only appear when DELL_SMBIOS is
manually selected, or by DELL_LAPTOP or DELL_WMI.

While DELL_SMBIOS does have a prompt, it does not have any dependencies.
Keeping DELL_SMBIOS visible, despite being "select"ed by DELL_LAPTOP and
DELL_WMI, is a deliberate choice to provide context for the WMI and SMM
backends, which would otherwise appear to float without context within
the menu.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
