0) The SERIAL=y part can also be dropped. There's no Kconfig symbol
SERIAL.

1) I've been looking at this impressive dependency list a few days back.
My impression was that it can be reduced to only AMIGA_BUILTIN_SERIAL=y.
(After that this Kconfig symbol might better be renamed to
AMIGA_BUILTIN_SERIAL_CONSOLE.)

I might have a draft patch to drop the dependencies somewhere. I need to
have another look at that (draft) patch before I can submit it.
