No functional difference. In Kconfig, 'if..endif' is just a way to
factor out repeated 'depends on'.

I think the if..endif style is more succinct, and many other subsystems
do this too. But it would also be dangerous to remove it since there may
be config options that don't also have the 'depends on DRM'.
