By convention, CONFIG_* symbols should only be set by Kconfig and not used for runtime checks. Also, the existing checks for those symbols check for whether it is defined, not for the actual value. With what you have there, the driver will always enable /dev/ports because CONFIG_DEVPORT is defined. What are you actually trying to achieve?
