Bug in config scripts? Some FB console options not cleared when container options disabled.

Hi,

If I set these options using "make menuconfig":

CONFIG_FB=y
CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_FB_VESA=y
CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT=y
CONFIG_FBCON_ADVANCED=y
CONFIG_FBCON_CFB8=y
CONFIG_FBCON_CFB16=y
CONFIG_FBCON_CFB24=y
CONFIG_FBCON_CFB32=y
CONFIG_FBCON_FONTS=y
CONFIG_FONT_8x8=y
CONFIG_FONT_8x16=y

And, I then unset CONFIG_FBCON_ADVANCED and CONFIG_FBCON_FONTS (the options that cause the CFB options and the FONT options to become accessible), I am left with these options:

CONFIG_FB=y
CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_FB_VESA=y
CONFIG_VIDEO_SELECT=y
CONFIG_FBCON_CFB8=y
CONFIG_FBCON_CFB16=y
CONFIG_FBCON_CFB24=y
CONFIG_FBCON_CFB32=y
CONFIG_FONT_8x8=y
CONFIG_FONT_8x16=y

Perhaps this is not a big deal and the orphaned options are usused. I guess I would expect the orphaned options to simply not appear, as the unselected options in the same subsections are not written out.
