I'm not sure removing that dependency is worth it. There's probably a
lot of code in the kernel that can be built without meeting the
specified dependencies. Maybe there should be a way to differentiate
soft from hard dependencies for this particular use-case. But I guess
for now the lack of dependency should be ok.
