Would it work to leave this as is, and ...

... make the above line instead be:

  	depends on (RT_MUTEXES && PREEMPT_RCU && RCU_EXPERT) || PREEMPT_RT_FULL

Or am I missing something?

I agree that the risk might currently seem small, but if Linus ever
starts building PREEMPT_RT_FULL kernels, I really really do not want
RCU_EXPERT to be set.  ;-)
