You're right, this isn't great. However, IS_ENABLED() still results in
the evaluation of the following code by the compiler, even if it would
be dropped by the optimiser.

I resorted to the following construct:

<quote>
#ifndef CONFIG_PCIE_APPLE_MSI_DOORBELL_ADDR
/* Keep things compiling when CONFIG_PCI_APPLE isn't selected */
#define CONFIG_PCIE_APPLE_MSI_DOORBELL_ADDR 0
#endif
#define DOORBELL_ADDR (CONFIG_PCIE_APPLE_MSI_DOORBELL_ADDR & PAGE_MASK)

static void apple_dart_get_resv_regions(struct device *dev,
struct list_head *head)
{
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PCIE_APPLE) && dev_is_pci(dev)) {
</quote>

which is ugly, but works. The alternative is, of course, to add a new
include file for one single value, which I find even worse.

Thanks,

M.
