How about an actual dependency like:
depends on ARCH_MESON || COMPILE_TEST
default ARCH_MESON
?
That way the option won't be presented to users where it's completely
irrelevant, e.g. running "make oldconfig" with an x86 distro config. It
always bugs me when I rebase a branch and have to manually confirm that
indeed I don't want to build random drivers specific to x86/RISC-V/etc.
SoCs for my arm64 config... ;)
