sorry - I'm a little confused and was wondering if you could clarify
something. Does this mean you expect CONFIG_FG_KASLR=y and
CONFIG_LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION=y to be a valid config? I am not
familiar with the option, but it seems like you are saying that it
requires sections to be collapsed, in which case both of these options
as yes would not be allowed? Should I actively prevent this in the
Kconfig?

Thanks.
