You are simply interpreting what you are seeing in the kernel source
package incorrectly.  To understand how those files are used to
compile the final config files, you would need to parse all of the
build logic in the spec file that comes in the kernel srpm.  While
instructive, its not what you want.  The final config file used to
build each binary kernel is shipped in the binary kernel package and
placed in /boot/ on kernel install.  That is the only file you need to
typically review when looking for specific kernel config settings.
