Now that I further think of this, I think this is still not correct.
Indeed, one of the major change recently brought to the grub2 package
is the ability in a single configuration to have grub support for x86
PC (legacy BIOS) x86 EFI. So in fact you can have
BR2_TARGET_GRUB2_BUILTIN_MODULES_EFI and
BR2_TARGET_GRUB2_BUILTIN_MODULES_PC non-empty at the same time.

So if you want to do the right thing, you would have to check that
BR2_TARGET_GRUB2_BUILTIN_MODULES_EFI doesn't miss any of the mandatory
modules if one of the EFI grub2 variant is selected *and* check that
BR2_TARGET_GRUB2_BUILTIN_MODULES_PC doesn't miss any of the mandatory
modules if one of the legacy BIOS grub2 variant is selected.
