CONFIG_ISA_DMA_API without CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA

I tried building a kernel using mpc85xx_smp_defconfig, but with all
platforms but p4080ds removed. This was the result:

Commit fb4f0e8832e0075849b41b65f6bb9fdfa7593b99 (Enable GENERIC_ISA_DMA
if FSL_ULI1575 to fix compile issue) tries to deal with this, but it
ties it to CONFIG_FSL_ULI1575, which is not selected in a p4080ds-only
config.
It seems that ULI isn't really relevant to the actual problem, which is
that we enable ISA DMA API support without selecting an implementation.
Whether a certain chip is on the board that has an actual ISA
interface is irrelevant to the build breakage.
Where did the dependency list for GENERIC_ISA_DMA come from? Are there
any legitimate cases on powerpc where we want to select ISA_DMA_API but
not GENERIC_ISA_DMA (i.e. we have an alternate implementation)?
