Sure ;-) A typical platform-specific sarm/arm64 .config file has almost 3000 config options disabled. Hence that means I have to say "n" almost 3000 times. Fortunately I started doing this several years ago, so I can do this incrementally ;-) Perhaps someone should try to remove all lines like "depends on ... || COMPILE_TEST", run "make oldconfig", read all help texts before saying "n", and time the whole operation... I hope I managed to convince you of the benefits. Thanks!
