No they aren't - at least not as the above patch is written.  There are
no configuration variables called CONFIG_CONFIG_MTD_OF_PARTS nor
CONFIG_CONFIG_SERIAL_OF_PLATFORM.

Kconfig won't warn about that, and if we assume that this patch has been
properly tested, it would appear that these two select statements just
aren't required (because they're effective no-ops as they currently stand).
