Commit message has to be as verbose as needed to provide enough context for 
whoever needs to explore the code history later.

I do not understand your problem with this option, CONFIG_HSR is a visible 
option that you can enable manually only then you will be able to successfully 
set CONFIG_TI_ICSSG_PRUETH to m/y, this is how the relation with NET_SWITCHDEV 
currently works.

Just 'depends on' is still a preferred way for me, as there is not a single 
driver that does 'select NET_SWITCHDEV'
