There's really no reason to make this a config option.
Project id feature is not likely to be widely used (i hope only

At least we will have many new users for free. But I predict

How would those "angry voices" notice this feature?


The embedded folks are continually complaining about kernel bloat.

I don't see it as a bad thing that there is a config option for a feature that will likely be used by < 1% of Linux users.
