How about using 'select MXS_DMA'?

Ok, I prefer this way too. Will resubmit it soon. Hopefully it is OK with Shawn.

No.  For your information, the following is what
Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt tell.

  Note:
        select should be used with care. select will force
        a symbol to a value without visiting the dependencies.
        By abusing select you are able to select a symbol FOO even
        if FOO depends on BAR that is not set.
        In general use select only for non-visible symbols
        (no prompts anywhere) and for symbols with no dependencies.
        That will limit the usefulness but on the other hand avoid
        the illegal configurations all over.
