It's legal to have options after the help text of a Kconfig entry. It's
also very uncommon to do that. Please put this select statement before
the line reading "---help---" of the PCI entry.

You probably want just
        bool

here. Because this symbol has no further dependencies, which means
HAVE_EARLY_PCI will now always be set to 'y'. That, in turn, makes the
select you added above pointless.

Is this expected to be used outside of X86?
