Subject: [PATCH] staging: unisys: change select to depends for subsystems

From: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@...radead.org>

Drivers should not 'select' a subsystem. Instead they should depend
on it. If the subsystem is disabled, the user probably did that for
a purpose and one driver shouldn't be changing that.
