CONFIG_FONT_SUPPORT is indeed selected, but the other options are about
which fonts to include by default. No dependencies are bypassed by the select.
Without the "depends on FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE", people who don't
have FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE set, but have set any of these:
config EARLY_PRINTK_EFI
select FONT_SUPPORT
config VIDEO_VIVI
select FONT_SUPPORT
select FONT_8x16
config SOLO6X10
select FONT_SUPPORT
select FONT_8x16
config USB_SISUSBVGA
select FONT_SUPPORT
...
select FONT_8x16
config SGI_NEWPORT_CONSOLE
select FONT_SUPPORT
config STI_CONSOLE
select FONT_SUPPORT
will now get more (unused) fonts in their kernel image.
