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.

(Problem Summary: several architectures need to be able to select
KEYBOARD_ATKBD without automatically selecting I8042.)
