No, the first dependency is still in place. It could also be written as
depends on (ISA && ISA_DMA_API) || EISA || PCI
which might be easier to understand. Do you want me to resubmit it like that?

That would indeed make it possible to enable it on ancient systems that
have none of ISA, EISA or PCI but still support ISA_DMA_API, e.g. for
a floppy controller.
A theoretical downside is that a system with a PCI advansys adapter
and ISA slots but no ISA_DMA_API would not be able to build this.
As far as I know, such a system does not exist.

Just to make sure we are on the same page: James thought my second patch
was making things too ugly and wanted to get back to this one.
