then the MACH_ASPEED_G* symbols depend on ARCH_ASPEED.

However, that doesn't help the COMPILE_TEST case, so we need some 
solution. Since MFD_SYSCON is required by all the relevant drivers and 
the aspeed pinctrl core, maybe it would be best just to add as a select to 
PINCTRL_ASPEED? Unless there's an argument for depends instead?

Thanks for the patch and report!
