*shrug*

I guess I don't really see a problem with this, although only a small
subset of drivers really supports it. Anyone really wanting to build for
a small system will probably turn it off anyway.

OTOH, if distros enable it, I also don't see much point in changing
it ;-)

What might be interesting is for drivers to somehow indicate they
support it? But you wouldn't necessarily want drivers to "select MESH",
so it'd probably have to be something like not allowing mesh to be
turned on if no driver is turned on that has it? But that makes it
complicated again, so it's all probably not worth it.
