The kernel doc states this as one of the possible cases where setting default 
y/m makes sense:

```
Sub-driver behavior or similar options for a driver that is “default n”. This 
allows you to provide sane defaults.
```

In the case of DWMAC_RZN1, it is a suboption of stmmac which is "default n", and 
I think it makes sense to enable the RZN1 ethernet controller driver if both the 
stmmac driver and the RZN1 architecture were explicitely selected.
