    serial: 8250_pci: make option visible · f1e8c710
    Jean Delvare authored
    Hiding tristate options with "if EXPERT" is usually not a good idea.
    You can decide that the driver should be included by default, but you
    don't know if the user wants it built-in or as a module. Hiding the
    option prevents the user from making that decision.
    
    In this specific case, driver 8250_pci ends up being built-in as soon
    as SERIAL_8250=y. It is very common for distribution kernels to build
    the subsystem core code into the kernel, because almost everybody
    will need it, but build all the device drivers as modules. This
    should be made possible.
    
    So drop the "if EXPERT" and make SERIAL_8250_PCI visible.
