Well, now that I asked and you gave valid reasons for the split,
you should keep them split the way they are. But please do add that
explanation to the commit message so that it is clear to people why
there is a split.

Well, what do you think would be easier/faster for a user configuring? A
separate menu where you have to do a couple of key presses just to enter
it or simply a subtree in Kconfig with all the options together. I think
the "depends" gives you that already...
Ok, once you've worked in the suggested changes, you're good to go,
at least for the EDAC bits. Let me know how you want to handle this,
whether I should pick up the whole thing or I should ack the EDAC parts.
This patchset should go together, in any case, and so I don't care
whoever picks it up.
Thanks.
