I see the usefullness of this feature but in turn it will limit the
capability to reduce U-Boot size to an essential minimum. In scenarios
where there are contraints on flash size or on-chip RAM for U-Boot SPL.
I would rather favour something like following like:

'default y if PINCTRL_QCOM_GENERIC'

where PINCTRL_QCOM_GENERIC can be enabled from generic Qcom defconfig.
