Is this how one does it?

config ZRAM_BACKEND_LZO
       bool "lzo and lzo-rle compression support"
       depends on ZRAM
       default y if !ZRAM_BACKEND_LZ4 && !ZRAM_BACKEND_LZ4HC && \
               !ZRAM_BACKEND_ZSTD && !ZRAM_BACKEND_DEFLATE
       default n
       select LZO_COMPRESS
       select LZO_DECOMPRESS


User still can select N and then we'll have empty backends, but
at least default is Y if none of the algorithms were selected.
Is it good enough?
