Why does this matter? NVMEM_MTK_EFUSE can be enabled for both
allmodconfig and randconfig builds on any architecture, so you
get build coverage either way, it's just a little less likely
to be enabled in randconfig I guess?

I would expect this to break the build with CONFIG_NVMEM=m
and MEDIATEK_GE_SOC_PHY=y.

The normal thing here would be to have a dependency on
CONFIG_NVMEM in place of the NVMEM_MTK_EFUSE dependency,
or possible on 'NVMEM || !NVMEM' if you want to make it
more likely to be enabled in randconfig builds.
