Which reminds me that I meant to reply before the holidays,
but then didn't get around to.

To be honest, I'm not convinced. On one hand I'm certainly
happy for this to not fall under THE REST, but on the other
hand I've checked your, Doug, history on both Xen and Linux
without finding (on the Linux side) any Kconfig related
contribution, and only few earlier ones on either side. I hope
you understand that I'm uncertain about a relative newcomer
to be immediately granted maintainership over a non-negligible
(both in terms of size and functionality) piece of code.

I'm open to be convinced otherwise, but for the moment I'm
NAKing this change.

Jan
