Why would I care?  If your config wakeups up so often that you need
special casing find a way to deal with it.  In the upstream kernel
CONFIG_ANDROID is a very strong indicator for a desktop kernel as
that is much more common than someone actually running upstream Linux
on one of the very few Android devices actually fully supported by
upstream Linux.
