It's not a better approach to select driver config, since it's in
drivers/ directory and any new user will looking in to into it for
config entry to select and proper help text to understand better.

The reason I've added MX6 is my defconfig entries are tested for MX6
arch related if some wanted this driver config in their defconfig and
with MX7 or something they simply update the 'depends on'
