The config option name is not the same in 5.7.y and 5.8.y. This
unintentionally got lost when we rebased to the 5.8 stable version, as
upstream did rename those in df823a8208c4 ("media: cec: rename CEC
platform drivers config options")[1] in 5.8-rc1.

So yes we should re-enable support.

So the following should be needed:

CONFIG_CEC_PLATFORM_DRIVERS=y
CONFIG_CEC_SECO=m
