Dracut needs to stop parsing config files (as it apparently does).
Kconfig symbols can (and will) change from release to release. They get
dropped, change meaning, change from tristate to bool or vice versa,
etc, whenever the kernel developers think that's needed.

I do not know what dracut is trying to achieve here, but there has got
to be a better way to do it.
