So something like:

config PPC32_NVRAM
	bool
	depends on NVRAM

obj-$(CONFIG_PPC32_NVRAM) += nvram.o
obj-$(CONFIG_NVRAM)       += nvram.o

Or did you have another solution in mind?
I start to understand the problem, and I'm currently wondering why 
powerpc uses CONFIG_NVRAM although the code CONFIG_NVRAM enables on 
other platforms is not enabled on powerpc.

Can we rename it and move drivers/char/generic_nvram.c under 
arch/powerpc/ ?

Can some powerpc person bring some background what's going on and why 
it's this way?
