You're right.  In practice, I used a different patch to actually force
enable it.

The final patch deletes it altogether, so I will just squash the two
and this will never appear in the final series.

Thanks!
Rusty.

This removes the "prompt" from this symbol's entry. And nothing selects
it either (not in next-20150302 nor in this series). So I think this
just disables this Kconfig symbol entirely. Ie, it can't be set even if
CPUMAK_OFFSTACK is set.

Should this entry perhaps be using
def_bool y

instead?
