So if both CONFIG_PARIDE and CONFIG_PATA_PARPORT are disabled, there
should be no need to compile the core PARIDE code under block/. You
should have something like:

In drivers/Makefile:

-obj-$(CONFIG_PARIDE) 		+= block/paride/
+obj-$(CONFIG_PARIDE_CORE) 	+= block/paride/

And then have CONFIG_PARIDE and CONFIG_PATA_PARPORT select PARIDE_CORE,
with CONFIG_PARIDE and CONFIG_PATA_PARPORT being mutually exclusive
(using "depends on" as you did).

Here, I am assuming that block/paride is the core code used by both
PARIDE and PATA_PARPORT. Not sure what PARPORT_PC does nor what its
dependency on block/paride code is.
