Yes.

Would it be acceptable to move the Kconfig entry for this:

config SPI_HISI_SFC_V3XX
tristate "HiSilicon SPI-NOR Flash Controller for Hi16XX chipsets"
depends on (ARM64 && ACPI) || COMPILE_TEST
depends on HAS_IOMEM
select MTD_SPI_NOR

into drivers/mtd/spi-nor/Kconfig, say after this one:

config SPI_HISI_SFC
tristate "Hisilicon FMC SPI-NOR Flash Controller(SFC)"
depends on ARCH_HISI || COMPILE_TEST
depends on HAS_IOMEM

and drop the "select MTD_SPI_NOR" because when it's in drivers/mtd/spi-nor/Kconfig,
it will depend on MTD_SPI_NOR.
