While we're on feature requests...
- the same for things like netfilter etc..
- the ability to generate permutation configs, I've had the need to
build test code that had like way to many CONFIG options:
GROUP_SCHED * {USER_SCHED, CGROUP_SCHED} * FAIR_GROUP_SCHED * RT_GROUP_SCHED
comes to mind. With a streamlined .config changing the configuration
takes more time than actually building a bzImage.
