You can express this in Kconfig:
	depends MII || MII=n

Except that:

Warning! Found recursive dependency: USB_USBNET USB_NET_AX8817X MII USB_USBNET

I think this is another case where Kconfig gets in the way and forces
introduction of a pseudovariable.  I'll give that a try.

But my suggestion was:
#if defined(CONFIG_MII) || (defined(CONFIG_MII_MODULE) && defined(MODULE))

Or simply select MII ...

Nope; those both prevent completely legit configurations.
MII is not required, except for those two adapter options.

What should work (with the USB_NET_MCS7830 part from Randy's patch 
removed) together with your patch and the
  #if defined(CONFIG_MII) || (defined(CONFIG_MII_MODULE) && defined(MODULE))
is:

config USB_USBNET
        tristate "Multi-purpose USB Networking Framework"
        select MII if USB_NET_AX8817X!=n || USB_NET_MCS7830!=n
