NAK.

1. you haven't tested this - if you select DEBUG_BCM2835 in the choice,
   it will select DEBUG_UART_PL01X, which, with your patch, will not
   have its new dependencies satisfied.

2. there is nothing to select this debug option on the platforms which
   you make it depend upon.

The real solution here is to convert these (and the other) remaining
platforms to the choice mechanism.  Same for the 8250 one.
