No, there is/was a bug in the kernel configuration scripts where it won't accept any values for one of these settings. I had to enter nothing and edit .config by hand. You can set the sbpcd settings on the command line to the kernel or to the module; much more practical than editing the kernel source for every new version. My conf.modules says options sbpcd sbpcd="0x330,0" which is for a "lasermate" interface at 0x330; it's just a small CD-ROM only controller, no sound card etc. Quotes are required for the module only.
