Known issue.  I tried to ping Jeff Garzik about doing a driver bug fix run in
order to fix this, but he hasn't shown any signs of life.

So I'll do it myself later tonight. :-/

    
The following seems to fix this up...

---snip--->
ixgbe, myri10ge: INTEL_IOATDMA can only be selected when X86=y
  
There's already a completely different fix queued in netdev patchworks
(for myri10ge only right now, to be duplicated for Intel drivers). The
idea is to stop having almost-unrelated drivers select each other
directly, let people select which drivers they really want, and have
Kconfig handle modules/builtin-stuff correctly. See
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/4506/
Right, my plan was to duplicate this for the other drivers.
