Ha! When I first started working on this stuff, it was controlled by a module parameter. Dave Brownell objected then because there was no way for distros to turn it off! It could be controlled by both a Kconfig option and a writable module parameter. I'm not sure that would satisfy everybody. But maybe there _is_ no way to satisfy everyone...
