It's a weird schema made by the vendor.

For ARM64, we have no MACH_SUN50I, as the only ARM64-capable series in SUNXI
is SUN50I. So I use (ARM64 && ARCH_SUNXI) here to represent "MACH_SUN50I".

P.S. Allwinner have sun4i(A10), sun5i(A13/A10s/GR8), sun6i(A31/A31s), sun7i(A20),
sun8i(A23/A33/H3/V3s/A83T), sun9i(A80), sun50i(A64/H5). From the sun6i
generation, things changed a lot; however, sun7i is a derivation of sun4i. In U-Boot,
every SoC after sun6i (except sun7i) have an option CONFIG_GEN_SUN6I.

This DMAengine driver is for the new generation DMA engine.

SUN4I, SUN5I and SUN7I have no hardware that uses such a DMAengine, so here's
MACH_SUN6I || MACH_SUN8I || (ARM64 && ARCH_SUNXI), to prevent it to be built
in a kernel that do not support any system with such a DMAengine.
