Not sure, maybe just preference. To me, when going through and not
reading all the config entries, it appears as though rt2x00 is just a
menu but selecting it still means code is built. Maybe there's the
solution too, provide a new menu for all these options, rename RT2X00 to
RT2X00_LIB and hide it by not providing a help text.

Good point.

No, that's not true, if RT2X00_LIB has no help text it would never show
up to the user.
