Well, back in old times every time I tried to enable it, I only ran into
problems so I got used to disable it, which made sense since it didn't
bring me any benefit.

I can retry with it if needed, but if we consider that it is necessary,
then we should probably not allow it to be disabled anymore, since my
working 3.4 config fails on 3.5 with "make oldconfig".
