Please at least type "make oldconfig" with CONFIG_HIPPI enabled or
similar before submitting patches like this.

There is nothing architecture or platform specific about getting
the option enabled enough for you to see this:

drivers/net/hippi/Kconfig:40: syntax error
drivers/net/hippi/Kconfig:20: missing end statement for this entry
drivers/net/Kconfig:28: missing end statement for this entry
drivers/Kconfig:1: missing end statement for this entry
drivers/net/hippi/Kconfig:39: invalid statement
drivers/net/Kconfig:341: unexpected end statement
drivers/Kconfig:139: unexpected end statement
make[1]: *** [oldconfig] Error 1
make: *** [oldconfig] Error 2

I've fixed this up but if you can't be bothered to type "make" I
seriously can't be bothered to even look at your patch submissions.
