The function of COMPILE_TEST is to allow drivers to be compiled in
environments where they do not work, to enable better code coverage
and easier testing of tree-wide changes without cross compilers. It
should never be enabled for production use cases. So yes, technically,
it does depend on either option, but only on one "real" option.
Therefore, I don't think there is anything wrong with the commit
message.
