I'm partly influenced by something comparable to "include
what you use", where my instinct here would be to explicitly
indicate dependencies even if other depended-on config
options satisfy them.  But I'll do what you're suggesting.

I will omit the dependency on PCI.  This is the same situation
as the OF dependency, where OF_IRQ is only available if OF is
enabled.

I'm adding "Suggested-by" you in the commit, because the final
(much simpler) form derives directly from what you've said here.

Thank you.
