that's not entirely true. Like any USB Link controller, MUSB needs a PHY
to work, but can be any off-the-shelf PHY. Nokia has used isp1704 and
isp1707 for instance. I guess Nokia also used tusb1211 and none of them
are listed there.

I would rather remove all the dependencies because the person compiling
the kernel should know that a Link needs a PHY. Maybe add a note
somewhere stating that you should enable the PHY driver for your
platform ?

on commit log, you said you were converting select to default, but here
you're converting select to depend. I have just added a patch allowing
musb to compile on all ARCHes and cannot take this step backwards.
Sorry. Any chance to resping this patch in another way ?
