I looked at some of the history here. It looks like this select was left
over from an earlier version of the patch series that added PPC_DAWR: v2
of the series has a new symbol PPC_DAWR_FORCE_ENABLE but by version 4
that new symbol had disappeared but the select had not.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/20190513071703.25243-1-mikey@neuling.org/
v5: https://lore.kernel.org/linuxppc-dev/20190604030037.9424-2-mikey@neuling.org/
The rest of the patch reasoning makes sense to me: DAWR support will be
selected anyway by virtue of PPC64->PPC_DAWR so there's no need to try
to select it again anyway.
