I haven't tested your patch nor looked at it carefully. However, I know
there is a difference between what the kernel does and what Buildroot
does in terms of Kconfig options.

In a kernel Kconfig file, the option names are not prefixed by
'CONFIG_', but when used in Makefiles, they are.

In Buildroot, option names are prefixed with 'BR2_' in both the
Config.in files and in the Makefiles. Does your change takes this into
account?

Thanks!

Thomas
