No, but somebody is.

How about you test it? It wasn't my bug-report, I just reported another
report from somebody who _does_ run randconfig.
Here's another one:
drivers/built-in.o: In function `bt_poll_rfkill':
toshiba_acpi.c:(.text+0x37346): undefined reference to `input_event'
where the cause seems to be a totally broken Kconfig entry ACPI_TOSHIBA.
You can't just do
select INPUT_POLLDEV
since that in turn needs all the _other_ input stuff. Yes, yes, things
like various keyboard drivers do exactly that, but they are already inside
"if INPUT_KEYBOARD/INPUT_MISC" or similar.
So at the very least, you'd now have to have it do a "depends on INPUT" or
something like that.
Or perhaps just make that particular _feature_ depend on it, rather than
make the whole driver depend on or select it.
