This line could be simplified. But it's also weird now that you can
select CONFIG_MTD_NAND_STM_BCH_BBT, but that won't build the BBT code if
MTD_NAND_STM_BCH=n. So I'd suggest the following instead:

	depends on MTD_NAND_STM_BCH
	default y

Or maybe this could be more explicit about the default:

	depends on MTD_NAND_STM_BCH
	default MTD_NAND_STM_BCH
