One of the other options you have selected depends on I2C so you are not able |
| 13 |
to deselect it. |

But you are using a different kernel configuration. |

I2C_SENSOR is a completely different option from the one that is locked on. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
I2C_SENSOR is a hidden option which appears to get turned on when you enable |
| 32 |
at least 1 specific sensor driver. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
The option that you have locked on is CONFIG_I2C. |
