This construct is wrong, both before and after, as I read it.

not get_option(foo).auto() is true for both enabled and disabled.  If disabled, 
why are we examining the dependency?  If auto, if we have all of the 
dependencies we want to enable the feature -- if we don't probe for the 
dependency, how can we enable it?

This error seems to be offset by the OR have_* tests, for which the logic also 
seems off.

I think the test should have been

   if (have_system or have_tools) and
      (not get_option('seccomp').disabled() or
       not get_option('virtiofsd').disabled())

Then we need to combine the required: argument, probably like

   required: get_option('seccomp').enabled() or
             get_option('virtiofsd').enabled()
