kernel test robot reports over 200 build errors and warnings that are due to this Kconfig problem when CARL9170=m, MAC80211=y, and LEDS_CLASS=m. WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for MAC80211_LEDS Depends on [n]: NET [=y] && WIRELESS [=y] && MAC80211 [=y] && (LEDS_CLASS [=m]=y || LEDS_CLASS [=m]=MAC80211 [=y]) Selected by [m]: - CARL9170_LEDS [=y] && NETDEVICES [=y] && WLAN [=y] && WLAN_VENDOR_ATH [=y] && CARL9170 [=m] CARL9170_LEDS selects MAC80211_LEDS even though its kconfig dependencies are not met. This happens because 'select' does not follow any Kconfig dependency chains. Fix this by making the select depend on LEDS_CLASS=y or LEDS_CLASS=MAC80211, just as this is done for ath9k.
