This looks wrong to me. If somebody selects CONFIG_RAID456 on ia64
then clearly they're intending to use it on ia64.
One option would be to remove the quoted description ("RAID 5 support
for IA64") then it wouldn't show up in the menu and would be
automatically selected if the conditions were met. But it's still
adding an arch-specific depend in a generic Kconfig, so I don't think
it's the right answer.

This looks wrong too. Since this is in arch/ia64, there's should be
no need to have an arch-specific lib-$(CONFIG_MD_RAID5_IA64), the old
invocation should work fine.
Could you explain what is wrong presently so we can find the right
solution?
Thanks,
