Hello Alex,

At a quick glance, it seems that your proposed configuration
adjustment is perfectly feasible.

Just one query. Do you actually make use of the relevant DEBUGFS ? It
is our normal procedure not to enable DEBUGFS throughout the
configuration, so as to minimise the physical size of the kernel.

On your behalf, I have opened an RFE in the bugtracker [1].

All being well, this configuration adjustment will be implemented with
the next update to the kernel-lt package.

Alan.
