Long story... I'm trying to get a completely working Lombard with all
of its features (PCMCIA wireless, suspend-to-RAM, etc.). However, this
failed. For example, currently I can only reboot into Linux with the
reset-button on the back: not very convenient. The symptons are that
it shuts down correctly, but pressing the power buttons sounds the
chime once and that's it. The screen stays blank. So I wanted to try
rebooting-with-kexec so I could try different kernels and find one
which worked completely. So, no, I don't want it enabled in a perfect
world. But we're not there yet :)

(currently setting PPC_EFIKA=y also breaks compiling, so I've disabled
it for now...)
