Strange. I just applied only this patch and the build still works on my system. I don't see any reason why this change of the menuconfig options from tristate to bool would cause the problem you are seeing.
I do see a problem in the Kconfig for the adl_pci7296 driver.
Based on the error message above, it requires COMEDI_8255. But that option is not listed as a depends or select. I noticed a couple other comedi drivers with the same issue.
