I think HAVE_ is a preferred prefix in this case according to this doc:
https://github.com/masahir0y/linux/blob/v4.19-rc4/Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt#L448


It is true we have some options with HAS_ prefix,
but the majority is HAVE_.

masahiro@pug:~/ref/linux$ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs grep 'config
HAS_' | wc
9 18 355
masahiro@pug:~/ref/linux$ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs grep 'config
HAVE_' | wc
177 354 8182

If you do this for entire powerpc,
the other 'select HAS_PCI' addtions to
arch/powerpc/platforms/*/Kconfig look redundant.

I think this 'select PCI_MSI' for riscv was lost.

The default is y for x86 (and xtensa as well).

With this patch, the default will be flipped.

I think most of people want to use PCI for x86,
and this change will make people upset.

Will you update arch/{x86,xtensa}/configs/*_defconfig?
