Hi Axel - those look pretty sane. I might not include DMAPI support, I
doubt that many, if any of your users need that.
Also, I see CONFIG_XFS_PRESENT - this is only used when the xfs out of
tree patch is applied - which allows xfs to be built outside the kernel
tree. If you don't have an xfs-oot.patch in place, you probably don't
need CONFIG_XFS_PRESENT>
For KDB, you might consider CONFIG_KDB_OFF=y, which will make kdb
inactive until the user sets /proc/sys/kernel/kdb to 1 - otherwise any
oops will send the box to kdb, which is perhaps not the friendliest
thing to do to a casual user.
