I would probably leave the dependency in there conditionally, like

         depends on ARCH_LAYERSCAPE || COMPILE_TEST

That way, we can build the driver on all architectures with "make allmodconfig"
or "make randconfig", but regular users that disable COMPILE_TEST
won't be bothered by the extra config options unless they have the
right hardware.
