Yes, originally. But OF is now used more or less as a synonym for
"Device Tree", i.e all the kernel functions to parse the Device Tree
are prefixed with of_*().
If you don't have CONFIG_SERIAL_OF_PLATFORM=y and your hardware is
described by a Device Tree, then your 8250 serial driver will not probe.
However, what is a bit weird is to enable both the 8250 driver and the
pl011 driver.
Best regards,
Thomas
