The relevant parts:
...
CONFIG_ARCNET_COM20020=m
# CONFIG_ARCNET_COM20020_ISA is not set
# CONFIG_ARCNET_COM20020_PCI is not set
...
CONFIG_ARCNET_COM20020_CS=m

In this hiracy it is not nice for the com20020 module to check wether
there are users for it. It breaks the direction of dependency. What if I
first compile com20020 install it, and then decide I want one of the other
modules? Then would I have to recompile com20020 and reload it.
Therefore: Remove the check, do always export the symbols.

As for actually testing: I have access to ArcNet hardware for 3 more
weeks. Then I will start at a new job, where there is no ArcNet.
