Hi rhubarbpieguy,

I looked into the ones that Ken didn't do, and I have some feedback.

BlueZ
-*- Cryptographic API ---> [CONFIG_CRYPTO]
  </M> User-space interface for hash algorithms                 [CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_HASH]   </M> User-space interface for symmetric key cipher algorithms [CONFIG_CRYPTO_USER_API_SKCIPHER]

   I believe Cryptographic API has no options.  Could [CONFIG_CRYPTO] be deleted as in cryptsetup?

Cryptographic API does have plenty of options, at least on my configuration (5.9.12)
I was unclear, by no options I mean there are no choices for the line as it's -*-.  I was questioning whether [CONFIG_CRYPTO] could be deleted on the line.  I appreciate [CONFIG_SpecificsHere]'s in the documentation but was questioning the need for any line with no entry to be made, such as with cryptsetup.  But with that, it was a question, not a statement.  Just a thought.

Device Drivers  --->

  I2C support --->
    <*/M> I2C device interface [CONFIG_I2C_CHARDEV]
    I2C Hardware Bus support  --->
      <M> (configure all of them as modules)
  <*/M> Hardware Monitoring support  ---> [CONFIG_HWMON]

   I believe Hardware Monitoring support has no options.  Should it be -*- Hardware Monitoring Support?  If so, could [CONFIG_HWMON] be deleted?
It does have many options, at least on my configuration.
Poor wording on my part.  The line -*- Hardware Monitoring Support ---> has no options as it's -*- in menuconfig.  I can enter neither Y nor M.

UPower

General Setup --->
    [*] Namespaces support --->     [CONFIG_NAMESPACES]

   I believe Namespaces support has no options.  Should it be -*- Namespaces support?  If so, could [CONFIG_NAMESPACES] be deleted?
Namespaces support does have the following options:
Again, poor wording on my part.  The line -*- Namespaces support ---> has no options as it's -*- in menuconfig.  No entry is accepted that I see.

Device Drivers  --->
  <*/M> Parallel port support  --->    [CONFIG_PARPORT]
    <*/M> PC-style hardware            [CONFIG_PARPORT_PC]
  Character devices  --->
    <*/M> Parallel printer support     [CONFIG_PRINTER]

   I see no CONFIG_PRINTER in .config.  Can the Character devices and Parallel printer lines be deleted?  I do see CONFIG_USB_PRINTER.
CONFIG_PRINTER is there. I found it on 5.9.12 by pressing "/" (for search) and then typing in CONFIG_PRINTER. It still is under Character Devices. I think it does require Parallel Port support as a prerequisite though.
My mistake; I see it after enabling Parallel Port support.

I appreciate your following up on this.  I realize many items were minor; my observations are primarily from a proof reading view.  I also realize the post was long, but I thought it better to address the area in one fell swoop versus bits and pieces.
