'imply' == weak 'select', it means that the target option may or may not be
selected. I.o.w. "optional" dependency.

Does CRYPTO_DEV_CCP_DD use I2C DesignWare code?

If I understand correctly the "depends on !(I2C_DESIGNWARE_PLATFORM=y &&
CRYPTO_DEV_CCP_DD=m)" you want to have IS_REACHABLE() in your code and actually
"imply CRYPTO_DEV_CCP_DD" in the I2C_DESIGNWARE_AMDPSP.
