It really doesn't matter what the latest version is, if the
maintainer has already taken an earlier version and merged it.
In that case one needs to work with the maintainer to determine
whether they want a new version, or a delta/fixup commit on the
old one.

So, this has the Kconfig move part, but the one currently in
char-misc does not. And it still needs the "select".

Updating the defconfigs is fine, but incomplete in itself. You
still need the IFC users to select MEMORY, otherwise you still
introduce build failures for anyone else who chooses IFC but
does not choose MEMORY.
In short, the char-misc tree still needs the v2 patch above.
