If NO_DMA=y:

    ERROR: "bad_dma_ops" [drivers/iio/adc/stm32-dfsdm-adc.ko] undefined!

Add a dependency on HAS_DMA to fix this.

Once again I have to ask why we're doing this per driver and not having
the few architectures that have this issue set something up.

Because doing so would lead us to

    depends on COMPILE_TEST || HAS_DMA

in many places. Is that any better?

I agree we could indeed use DMA dummies in cases where a driver uses:

   depends on ARCH_FOO || ARCH_BAR || COMPILE_TEST
   depends on HAS_DMA

But we also have generic options like:

    config ATA_BMDMA
            bool "ATA BMDMA support"
            depends on HAS_DMA

And even architecture-specific drivers for SoCs that may or not have DMA:

config HASH_DEV_STM32
        tristate "Support for STM32 hash accelerators"
        depends on ARCH_STM32
        depends on HAS_DMA

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

                        Geert

Honestly I'd just not have any dependency here, I'm not sure the DMA
dependencies are really covering a good percentage of what's really
likely to be found on these platforms.
