Subject[PATCH] clocksource/drivers/sp804: make CONFIG_ARM_TIMER_SP804 selectable again
Adding a dependency on CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST makes the relevant item
unselectable for practical purposes. The correct solution is to add a
dependency alternative on the relevant architecture.

Fixes: dfc82faad72520 ("clocksource/drivers/sp804: Add COMPILE_TEST to CONFIG_ARM_TIMER_SP804")

Hi Thomas,

Incidentally, that's what I proposed earlier as RFC. Resending that
variant now.

I also note that there are likely more instances for this pattern.
Should they be fixed in a similar way? You can find a lot using the
following incantation:

$ git describe --tags
v5.3-rc4
$ git ls-files -- "*/Kconfig" | xargs git grep --cached 'bool .* if COMPILE_TEST$' -- | wc -l
185
$

Seems like an anti-pattern to me. It is particularly common in the
clocksource subtree.
