mpt3sas: Add dummy Kconfig option for backwards compatibility
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The mpt2sas driver was recently folded into mpt3sas to reduce code
duplication.

To avoid problems for people that only have CONFIG_SCSI_MPT2SAS in their
.config we introduce a dummy option that will select MPT3SAS if MPT2SAS
was previously enabled.

This is a temporary measure and we will deprecate this config option in
4.6.
