Not sure how it handles `SENSORS_ASUS_EC=m`. Probably, it should be:

```
depends on ACPI_WMI && SENSORS_ASUS_EC=n
```


Odd language, and good catch. If I understand correctly, the result
of !SENSORS_ASUS_EC is 'm' if SENSORS_ASUS_EC=m. So, yes, it looks
like this needs to be "ACPI_WMI && SENSORS_ASUS_EC=n".

If you say yes here you get support for the ACPI embedded controller
hardware monitoring interface found in B550/X570 ASUS motherboards.
This driver will provide readings of fans, voltages and temperatures
through the system firmware.
+ This driver is deprecated in favor of the ASUS EC Sensors driver
+ which provides fully compatible output.
+
This driver can also be built as a module. If so, the module
will be called asus_wmi_sensors_ec.

Thanks.
