Subject: [PATCH 14/15] x86/kconfig/64: Enable popular generic kernel options in the defconfig

This is the last set of options picked up from major Linux distributions:

 - CONFIG_UAPI_HEADER_TEST=y

    x86 developers frequently modify UAPI headers during development,
    make sure they get tested.

 - CONFIG_WATCH_QUEUE=y

    All major distros have general notification queue support enabled.
