In case someone else misunderstod me I will clear it up, I am
working on all does 600 or so files which still use the old "#include
<linux/config.h>" and all that "#include"ing is what I think is
needed to use all the little headers in include/config/.

So I know smartconfig is done, I am just trying to make sure
the whole kernel uses it.

Still I don't know if I am going the right direction so I need
some feedback.

Anyway, if someone wants the 300k diff to finish the work or
to help with a little feedback I can send it. I just didn't think
posting a 60k email which it became after gzip and uuencode with
something which is probably all wrong wasn`t quite nice.

Trying to be helpful
