Anyway this special logic is also something misleading: a) BRIDGE_NETFILTER=y and BRIDGE_NETFILTER depends on BRIDGE sugest something which depends on BRIDGE is compiled into kernel, which is usually impossible if BRIDGE=m b) let's assume a) is right; shouldn't this dependency be automatically added to _PHYSDEV etc.? I mean config script behavior - not bridge makefile.
