I'm sure there is a way to fix this properly with added complexity, either
making dump_emit() an empty inline function when CONFIG_COREDUMP
is disabled, or adding a lot of #ifdef checks in spufs itself.

In the interest of keeping things simple, I'd suggest doing this one instead:

--- a/arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/Kconfig
+++ b/arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/Kconfig
@@ -44,6 +44,7 @@ config SPU_FS
        tristate "SPU file system"
        default m
        depends on PPC_CELL
+       depends on COREDUMP
        select SPU_BASE
        help
          The SPU file system is used to access Synergistic Processing

I'll send a proper patch if there are no objections.
