What version is this patch against? This line was removed from
mainline a while ago.
As to why it was removed, the discussion happened back then.
Basically, if something requires CONFIGFS_FS (eg, OCFS2) and is a
module, then a user is asked whether they want configfs as a module or
built-in. Text saying "say N" is completely incorrect there.
