If ARM and SUPERH imply HAS_DMA, that formula is almost identical to
the one I proposed in my patch?

       depends on HAS_DMA
       depends on SUPERH || ARCH_SHMOBILE || COMPILE_TEST

I just prefer to split dependencies in two lines where it makes sense ("hard"
dependencies vs. "soft" (user platform configuration) dependencies).
