Kconfig has never guaranteed to pay any attention to dependencies of
things that were enabled as a result of a select statement - they would
be silently ignored.  I've done some tests and it does seem that this is
doing what would be expected at the minute but looking at the Kconfig
changelogs I can't see anything that makes this an intentional change.
