Okay, fixed the ordering of the "default" lines so that the Kconfig actually works correctly.
Best for Andrew to soak this one in -mm.
glad to see that the linux kernel is now ready for the 'idea' I submitted a patch[1] for, more than a year ago -- which unfortunately went unnoticed back then ...
cheers to Jens and Mark!
best, Herbert
