Subject: [2.6 patch] ACPI should depend on, not select PCI

ACPI should depend on, not select PCI.

Otherwise, illegal configurations like X86_VOYAGER=y, PCI=y are
possible.

This patch also fixes the options select'ing ACPI to also select PCI.

It's surprising that there's any such linkage, actually. Is it
impossible for a non-PCI system to have ACPI?

When ACPI was concieved (~1999 according to the spec I have handy)
ISA-only PCs were somewhat scarce. It's probably safe to say anything
that supports ACPI has PCI (For x86[64] at least, I don't know about ia64)

The spec mentions as a minimum requirement for OSPM/ACPI systems
amongst other things..

"A _PRT method for all root PCI bridges"

which pretty much sounds like it's at dependant on PCI (or a later
evolved standard like PCIE) hardware being present.
