I'd argue it's the complete opposite. Most users don't use the in-tree defconfig,
but use olddefconfig on their customized .config, either explicitly or
implicitly via menuconfig and saving.
This would result in non-functional PCI after an update. I don't mind renaming
the file, but please leave the Kconfig symbol as-is.
Thanks,
Ahmad
