Recently someone told me he had a bug on x86 and to reproduce it I should "'make allyesconfig' and disable CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y".
But I didn't see it. "make allyesconfig" is ambiguous on x86 and he had a 64bit computer. There go another two hours compile time. It makes sense to have the Kconfig default and the defconfig based on whether you are on a 32bit or a 64bit machine, but it's complete nonsense to not offer the Kconfig variable unless you had explicitely given ARCH=x86 (in which case you could as well immediately set the ARCH to i386 or x86_64).
