Masahiro, I am afraid I don't follow here. I meant that in order for
"make help" to show things like:

debug.config - Enable Kconfig items for running kernel for general debugging

It needs to modify scripts/kconfig/Makefile or use a arch-specific
Makefile like kvm_guest.config. Do you mean you would prefer the latter?
