Correct one Kconfig dependency, which should refer to CONFIG_USERMODE rather
than to CONFIG_UM.
We should also figure out how to make the config process work better for UML.
We would like to make UML able to "source drivers/Kconfig" and have the right
drivers selectable (i.e. LVM, ramdisk, and so on) and the ones for actual
hardware excluded. I've been reading such a request even from Jeff Dike at the
last Kernel Summit, (in the lwn.net coverage) but without any followup.

Yes, I agree 100%!
Drivers for `modern' hardware (e.g. PCI, USB), shouldn't be a problem, since
they have good dependencies.
`legacy' hardware is more of a problem. Since the consensus was that CONFIG_ISA
is meant to indicate ISA slots, perhaps we need something like CONFIG_XBUS to
mark all these legacy drivers?
