I think they were both meaningful, because both options are tristate. So this previously required them to be built-in (=y), whereas after your patch it will allow them to be modules. I don't know for sure that those options need to be built-in, but that's what the code does now, so this patch shouldn't change it, at least without an explanation. cheers
Thanks Michael, I've applied =y's. Good catch! eric
