I missed mentioning the following details -

This patch is created on kernel version 5.4-rc2

Changes in v1:
- dropped following changes
'depends on EFI' as it is implied
'default n' as 'n' is the default if not mentioned
splitting 'bool' to 'bool + prompt'
- added dependency on X86 || COMPILE_TEST
- added the 'Reported-by:' and 'Fix-suggested-by:' to give credit to 
Geert Uytterhoeven who reported the issue and suggested the fix

[PATCH v1] Ask user input only when CONFIG_X86 or CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST is set to y

2019-10-13 Thread Narendra.K
From: Narendra K 

For the EFI_RCI2_TABLE kconfig option, 'make oldconfig' asks the user
for input on platforms where the option may not be applicable. This patch
modifies the kconfig option to ask the user for input only when CONFIG_X86
or CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST is set to y.
