config PCI_IOAPIC
	bool
	depends on PCI
	depends on ACPI
	depends on HOTPLUG
	default y

select NLS if (DMI || ACPI)

I guess this is simply wrong. It will be parsed as

config PCI_IOAPIC
	bool
	depends on PCI
	depends on ACPI
	depends on HOTPLUG
	default y
	select NLS if (DMI || ACPI)

How about something like the following?

config PCI_LABEL
	bool
        select NLS
        depends on (DMI || ACPI)
