There is no need for any Kconfig wrangling. Just do it in the Makefile:

obj-$(SATA_AHCI_EXAMPLE1) += sata_example1.o libahci.o
obj-$(SATA_AHCI_EXAMPLE2) += sata_example2.o libahci.o

Thus,

1) update PCI ahci's Makefile entry
2) add Kconfig and Makefile entry for platform_ahci

No need to touch PCI AHCI's Kconfig bits at all.

Regards,

Jeff
