Doesn't select from an 'm' symbol cause the target of the select to end
up being 'm' ?  If yes, we have a way to solve this today.

config ARM_PLATFORM_FOO
	bool "Default configuration for FOO"
	select ARCH_FOO
	select VIDEO_WHATEVER

config ARM_PLATFORM_FOO_MOD
	tristate
	default m if ARM_PLATFORM_FOO
	select I2C
	select SPI

etc.  We just need to be very careful about dependencies for things like
I2C, SPI, etc.
