I don't like the fact that the cadence/ rule looks different than the
dwc/ rule for no obvious reason.  With some work, the dwc/ rule could
maybe be made to look like:

  obj-$(CONFIG_PCIE_DW)                 += dwc/

I *think* that should actually be pretty easy.  Everything in
drivers/pci/dwc/Kconfig selects PCIE_DW if set, either via
PCIE_DW_HOST or PCIE_DW_EP.

Can you just use the same strategy as pci/dwc/Kconfig does, i.e., omit
the top-level PCI_CADENCE symbol?  If we don't need it for dwc, with
its dozen drivers, we probably don't need it for the one or two
Cadence drivers.
