Applied, thanks.

But this shows a general problem with NET_UDP_TUNNEL, it's
something everyone using 'select' on, but that's broken
because NET_UDP_TUNNEL is not a leaf node and rather has
dependencies of it's own that it 'select'.  But 'select x'
does not cause x's select statements to be executed.

It all just works by luck right now :-/
