Correct. Where possible we are switching to the upstream drivers (like spi-bcm2835) and deprecating the drivers from Pi tree (spi-bcm2708).
So CONFIG_SPI_BCM2835=m is correct for now. Leave CONFIG_SPI_BCM2708=m in for now in case people have difficulties with the upstream driver, but that will eventually be removed.
Assuming this build works okay, then official OE build should also enable CONFIG_SPI_BCM2835.
