OK. The current setup has this in drivers/staging/rdma/Kconfig:

menuconfig STAGING_RDMA
bool "RDMA staging drivers"
depends on INFINIBAND
depends on PCI || BROKEN
depends on HAS_IOMEM
depends on NET
depends on INET
default n
---help---
This option allows you to select a number of RDMA drivers that
fall into one of two categories: deprecated drivers being held
here before finally being removed or new drivers that still need
some work before being moved to the normal RDMA driver area.

If you wish to work on these drivers, to help improve them, or
to report problems you have with them, please use the
linux-rdma@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx mailing list.

If in doubt, say N here.


# Please keep entries in alphabetic order
if STAGING_RDMA

source "drivers/staging/rdma/amso1100/Kconfig"

source "drivers/staging/rdma/hfi1/Kconfig"

source "drivers/staging/rdma/ipath/Kconfig"

endif


As you can see, it has proper depends for all of the drivers, so no need
to add dependencies piecemeal any longer.
