Yes, that's ok.

Also, if the driver doesn't strictly depend on these platforms but
can build on anything, I would write it as

config TI_EDMA
        tristate "TI EDMA support"
        default m if 'ARCH_DAVINCI || ARCH_OMAP1 || ARCH_OMAP2
        select DMA_ENGINE
        select DMA_VIRTUAL_CHANNELS
