I actually get the following Warning when compiling this:
drivers/i2c/Kconfig:123:warning: 'I2C_SLAVE_MQUEUE_MESSAGE_SIZE' has wrong type. 'select' only accept arguments of bool and tristate type

So, yes, you should remove the selects above, and make the two configs depend on this one. something like:
