I'm not sure to understand what you want, here.
I find it valid that a 'bool' can 'select' a 'tristate', to force it to 'y'.

Do you mean there is an issue with Kconfig, the parser?
  -> should Kconfig warn or error out in such a case?

Or do you mean the structure above is wrong, and should be ammended?
  -> change the 'select' to a 'depends on'?
  -> change the symbol to a tristate?
