This looks like a sensible way to go, thanks for working on this!

While the fallback stuff might need more testing, the other patches
(addition of CFL-S and split of configs) are rather systematic, so we
can merge this at first soonish.

And we may need a bit more comments in Kconfig help for the fallback
behavior.  Or document it properly and refer to it from Kconfig help.
The git commit log isn't present in the released kernel code, after
all.


thanks,

Takashi
