hm, i think in this specific case the new firewire entry should be added
after the PROVIDE_OHCI1394_DMA_INIT section. (that's how we extend
groups of Kconfig entries anyway) The new trace entries in the scheduler
tree follow that pattern and add the new kernel/trace/Kconfig at the
right place. So if the firewire entry is added that way this conflict
could be avoided.
