Thanks for these reported, this patch has some problems and is discarded.

As Lucas's and Jani's suggestion, there are some other solutions, but I can't
make sure these solutions won't generate such building errors like this one.
So I want to use some tools to make sure this dependency is absolutely right.
I saw there were some thoughts about kconfig-sat[1], maybe it can help. I guess
using SAT is a nice solution for this problem, but I'm not famlilar with SAT.

So it need some time (maybe more) for me to send a v2 patch.
