Dear list, I have noticed that CONFIG_EXPERT=n makes the following options in the kernel required (unremovable):
CONFIG_FW_LOADER=y CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="" CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2_ALPS=y CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2_LOGIPS2PP=y CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2_SYNAPTICS=y CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2_LIFEBOOK=y CONFIG_MOUSE_PS2_TRACKPOINT=y CONFIG_VGA_ARB=y CONFIG_VGA_ARB_MAX_GPUS=16 CONFIG_I8253_LOCK=y CONFIG_DEBUG_MEMORY_INIT=y CONFIG_PCSPKR_PLATFORM=y If I select CONFIG_EXPERT=y then I can remove those, but that creates a new problem by making CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y unremovable. To make a specific example, this makes it impossible to compile a kernel with CONFIG_FW_LOADER=n CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=n at the same time I am not a kernel developer, but I can see no logical reason why that should be so. Could somebody please comment on this? I hope my question makes sense.
