Subject: [PATCH] mfd: simple-mfd-i2c: remove select I2C_K1

select will force a symbol to a specific value without considering
its dependencies. As a result, the i2c-k1 driver will fail to build
when OF or COMMON_CLK are disabled.

The reason for removing I2C_K1 instead of adding a depends on condition
is to keep the possibility for other SoCs to use this PMIC.
