The dependencies will need some tweaking here:
arch/arm64/Kconfig:263:error: recursive dependency detected!
arch/arm64/Kconfig:263: symbol DMI depends on EFI
arch/arm64/Kconfig:242: symbol EFI is selected by GOOGLE_SMI
drivers/firmware/google/Kconfig:13: symbol GOOGLE_SMI depends on DMI
The best fix imo is changing the GOOGLE_SMI Kconfig symbol to depend
on EFI rather than select it.
The ARM version of this patch is undoubtedly affected by the same thing.
