This is not good.

Why not, if we get rid of the prompt on FS_ENET?

In general when you select a symbol that has dependencies you are almost
always on the wrong track.

The dependencies on FS_ENET could continue to be valuable as documentation and verification of the conditions under which the driver will build, but the more specific options should make sure that they never select it when the dependencies aren't met.

Use a dependency here with a sane default - then people can set it to 'n' if they really do not want this driver.

Spreading selects too much is just causing you pain in the long run.

I'm not sure I understand what you're looking for, but I don't see anything wrong with something like this (apart from missing help text):

config FS_ENET
        bool
        select MII
        select PHYLIB

config FS_ENET_HAS_SCC
        bool "Freescale CPM SCC Ethernet"
        depends on CPM1 || CPM2
        select FS_ENET

config FS_ENET_HAS_FCC
        bool "Freescale CPM FCC Ethernet"
        depends on CPM2
        select FS_ENET

config FS_ENET_HAS_FEC
        bool "Freescale Fast Ethernet Controller"
        depends on CPM1 || PPC_MPC512x
        select FS_ENET

config FS_ENET_MDIO_FEC
        bool "Freescale FEC MDIO"
        depends on FS_ENET_HAS_FEC

config FS_ENET_MDIO_BITBANG
        bool "Freescale CPM Bitbanged MDIO"
        depends on CPM2
