Make sata_mv host driver depend on PCI || ARCH_KIRKWOOD || ARCH_MVEBU || ARCH_ORION5X config options as Marvell SATA support covers both Marvell PCI devices and Marvell Kirkwood, Armada 370/XP and Orion5x SoCs (for non-PCI devices the driver to work requires suitable device tree node to be defined). Additionally allow the driver build if COMPILE_TEST config option is set.Hi Bartlomiej I _think_ there are a few powerpc platforms which can also make use of this driver.
Currently no powerpc platform uses this driver for non-PCI devices and looking at commits history for powerpc dts files it seems that it also hasn't happened in the past. I think that the current patch is sufficient as we can always relax dependencies later if the need for it shows up + there is a possibility to (ab)use COMPILE_TEST for older kernels.
