[PATCH v4] ata: Remove depends on HAS_DMA in case of platform dependency

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

Remove dependencies on HAS_DMA where a Kconfig symbol depends on another
symbol that implies HAS_DMA, and, optionally, on "|| COMPILE_TEST".
In most cases this other symbol is an architecture or platform specific
symbol, or PCI.

Generic symbols and drivers without platform dependencies keep their
dependencies on HAS_DMA, to prevent compiling subsystems or drivers that
cannot work anyway.

This simplifies the dependencies, and allows to improve compile-testing.

This looks fine to me but how do you wanna route it?  Should I apply
it to for-4.18-fixes or should it go with arch changes in some other
tree?

Thanks.

Please queue it in the ata tree. There are no related arch changes.
Thanks!

Applied to libata/for-4.18-fixes.

Thanks.
