We could 

diff --git a/mm/Kconfig b/mm/Kconfig
index 02d44e3420f5..85bc8bf32e7b 100644
--- a/mm/Kconfig
+++ b/mm/Kconfig
@@ -403,7 +403,7 @@ config NOMMU_INITIAL_TRIM_EXCESS
 
 config TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE

-	depends on HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE
+	depends on MMU && HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE
 	select COMPACTION
 	select XARRAY_MULTI
 	help

but in a sense HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE should imply that MMU is
selected :)
