I've failed to prevent faulty configurations with regular depends
on/select keywords, so I've come with a new solution which received a
successful build coverage test from the 0-day robots.

In order to still be able to use the spi controller driver (=y) while
mtd is =m or =n, I need to add an IS_REACHABLE() check in a couple of
headers. This way we can just imply the right MTD symbols from the
SPI_MXIC Kconfig entry.

I'll send a v11 with these changes which seem to rather cleanly address
all situations. I don't think I can do without these extra checks as
select/imply will not propagate the real value of the Kconfig symbol
(y/m) like depends on does.

Thanks,
Miquèl
