The driver would build fine without this symbol selected, but since it 
relies on availability of DMA, it doesn't make too much sense to build it 
this way. This kind of selects makes kernel configuration more user 
friendly IMHO.

Possibly adding appropriate selects (PL330) for s5p* and exynos could make 
sense.

Best regards,
Tomasz
