I think this is fine. I'm working with embedded devices (AVR32 & ARM) as well. And I usually turn on CONFIG_EMBEDDED=Y because I want to really fine-tune my kernel to my device. And therefore I know my hardware. And because I know my hardware, I can decide on my own if I need rate ctrl or not. -- http://www.holgerschurig.de
