On the contrary, since NET was being selected for them indirectly
previously, weren't they depending instead upon NET being enabled?
Likewise for SCSI_NETLINK, SCSI_FC_ATTRS, and whatever was triggering
the select upon them?
I'll remember this as yet another why 'select' is to be avoided at
just about all costs.
