It appears that "select" doesn't accept conditionals as the kconfig
language stands - jejb also ran into this issue, and tried various
ways around. The only solution which seems to work is to remove this
select line entirely.
Maybe RZ can comment further.
(Problem Summary: several architectures need to be able to select
KEYBOARD_ATKBD without automatically selecting I8042.)
