This is now commit 4f75da3666c0c572 ("linux/dim: Move implementation to
.c files") in net-next.

Merely enabling a NET_VENDOR_* symbol should not enable inclusion of
any additional code, cfr. the help text for the NET_VENDOR_BROADCOM
option.

Hence please move the select to the config symbol(s) for the driver(s)
that need it.

Please drop this line, as optional library code should never be included
by default.

Thanks!
