I'm not convinced it's totally redundant. Using only select without
default, after selecting an option which causes CM or DM client to be
included, and then unselecting the original option, sometimes causes the
underlying dependency to stay on. With the default syntax, I don't think
that happened. With the defaults as well, this does not occur. So I
think it is better this way unless it is a bug that there is this
difference for another reason.

I will resubmit the new patch which will have the same Kconfigs and a
new Makefile shortly.
