Well, it's unfortunate, undesirable, and confusing, but not incorrect AFAICT.

drivers/char/Kconfig:

config CS5535_GPIO
tristate "AMD CS5535/CS5536 GPIO (Geode Companion Device)"

drivers/gpio/Kconfig:

config GPIO_CS5535
tristate "AMD CS5535/CS5536 GPIO support"
depends on PCI && !CS5535_GPIO


Still, I agree that a change would be good/helpful.
