I only looked at the laoder.conf for amd64 and the only comment I have is that

 This is going to be really bad for boot time.

You cannot ship that on by default for non-tecnical reasons in a kernel.  
Please do not commit a kernel config that can be booted (no LINT cannot be 
booted) with these on without consulting appropriate hats upfront.
