From 6abd4577bccc66f83edfdb24dc484723ae99cbe8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Thu, 4 Dec 2025 11:00:09 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] can: fix build dependency A recent bugfix introduced a new problem with Kconfig dependencies: WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for CAN_DEV Depends on [n]: NETDEVICES [=n] && CAN [=m] Selected by [m]: - CAN [=m] && NET [=y] Since the CAN core code now links into the CAN device code, that particular function needs to be available, though the rest of it does not. Revert the incomplete fix and instead use Makefile logic to avoid the link failure.
