yeah, it's not like i'm complaining - you are doing a terrific job with
kbuild and kconfig.
Perhaps instead of outright converting it (which needs thought and real
hard work), how about just running a quick script over all Kconfigs and
marking old-style entries as:
# TODO: this stuff needs to be fixed, see Documentation/blah.txt
? Should be 15 minutes of awk and can be committed right after -rc1.
Annoying messages like that tend to get the attention of architecture
maintainers :-) The Kconfig rules are not always obvious so people need
help.
