Subject: [PATCH 0/7] Remove side-effects of CONFIG_EXPERT

CONFIG_EXPERT was designed to toggle visibility of config options.
However, we used it in several different places to change default values
or default selections. This may produce unwanted side-effects for users
who enable EXPERT mode to toggle a single config option.

Regards
David
