See my reply to Lorenzo, but I'm not arguing for it to be enabled by
default. I was trying to show how we traditionally handle these kinds
of features: putting their enablement behind a Kconfig and boot param
that work together. That way distro kernels have it _available_ without
making it _enabled_, and specialty kernels can have in enabled by default
(and can disable it at boot if needed too).
