I think I will do it a bit different, so that you can opt-out ALSA support
and still have thinkpad-acpi built in, with modular ALSA in that case.

Which means that, due to the lack of "depends-but-not-hide", the
"thinkpad-acpi alsa support" kconfig entry will still just disappear due to
a "depends on SND && SND = THINKPAD_ACPI".

I really want a depends that leaves the entry still visible, but greyed out
:-(

It is at KERN_NOTICE right now.
