Using 'select' on user-selectable symbols risks introducing
circular dependencies.

My first attempt was to add "depends on LEDS_CLASS || !LEDS_CLASS"
to DRM_NOUVEAU, which led to one long circle:

The underlying problem is that we already have a number of other
symbols that either have "depends on LEDS_CLASS" or
"select LEDS_CLASS". To clean that up properly, we should either
make the symbol itself hidden and only select it from other drivers,
or use "depends on LEDS_CLASS" everywhere.

Another option is to use the IS_REACHABLE() macro instead of IS_ENABLED()
in the header file, to stub out the calls into the new file, but
that can be a bit confusing.
