What exactly is it you are trying to solve here?  I 1st thought
perhaps some pointless randconfig build fail, but even if you try
to hand craft a .config with "# CONFIG_BLOCK is not set" you still
can't get to ext2/3/4 options because fs/Kconfig has this:

 ---------------
if BLOCK

source "fs/ext2/Kconfig"
source "fs/ext3/Kconfig"
source "fs/ext4/Kconfig"
 ----------

The help text for CONFIG_BLOCK is explicit in saying this too.

I don't see value in adding more #ifdef noise that doesn't do anything.

Thanks,
Paul.
