There is some other kind of dependancy as well, because I get the
following errors when building:

drivers/staging/kztmem/kztmem.c:34:2: error: #error "kztmem is useless without CONFIG_CLEANCACHE or CONFIG_FRONTSWAP"

If you require a kbuild dependancy, then put it in your Kconfig file
please, don't break the build.

I'll not apply these patches for now until that's fixed up.

thanks,
