Arjan, I didn't want to needlessly couple megaraid and megaraid_sas.
Since they are in the same directory, I couldn't avoid having single
Makefile. I thought at least these two should be separate to be consistent
with their independent nature.
If this is not a good enough reason, I will merge these two files.
Thanks,

Please merge them.
Whether they are in the same Kconfig file or not does not in any way
imply any relation between them.
E.g. drivers/scsi/Kconfig contains many drivers that are not in any way
coupled to each other.
