The elimination of conditionals in Makefiles is definitely worth it. Not
sure about pure whitespace fixes, if the USB developers don't show
interest, you can try pushing these through trivial@xxxxxxxxxxx I have
only one remark below:

So this wasn't exactly elegant before and you are only changing *-objs
to *-y. Looking at drivers/usb/musb/Kconfig, al the three USB_*_DMA
depend on !MUSB_PIO_ONLY, so the outermost if statement can go away.
Furthermore, the intent seems to be to only enable one of the four modes
(MUSB_PIO_ONLY, USB_INVENTRA_DMA, USB_TI_CPPI_DMA or USB_TUSB_OMAP_DMA),
so it is a perfect candidate for a "choice" group. Have a look e.g. at
"PCI access mode" in arch/x86/Kconfig. Then, the Makefile part can be
reduced to three lines without any ifs.
