I don't understand this one. I thought mbigen is specific to just one
of Hisilicon's SoC families, while ARCH_HISI is more generic and can
also be set for the other ones.

Maybe just add 'default ARCH_HISI' and 'depends on ARCH_HISI || COMPILE_TEST'
to the option? We should certainly keep building this driver for
compile-test on all architectures.
