I believe that error caused by two missing bytes: '=' and 'y'. :-) RAM_CONSOLE is a bool, so it should be enabled only when PSTORE_RAM is also =y. (For some reason I keep foregetting that bool's 'depends on' may be satisfied by tristates' =m option, which easily lead to the errors above.) Thanks for catching this!
