I did a quick search and there's lots of places that source is within if
statements. But the config used isn't usually a tristate. That is, it is
either enabled or not, but can't be a module.

Here the if condition was a module and is something that localmodconfig
can disabled.

Hmm, I did find another case like this (and there may be more).

drivers/ipack/Kconfig does it too. But nobody noticed.

Anyway, it's fixed now, which is good.
