The QUICC Engine is on chips other than MPC836x, such as the MPC832x:
http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=MPC8323E

Why do you want it to depend on MPC836x?
Or do you just plan to change this dependency once 832x support is in
the source tree?

This will change when there is support for MPC832x, its fairly  
normally to start with the first processor that has the feature and  
than add others as time goes on.
