I know - that's where I sto^W borrowed the idea from.

No, that will break the fix.

These are not options to be inserted into a regular .config.

These are options passed to `make randconfig` via a sidedoor (the
KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG= variable) causing them to be handled specially while
the regular .config file is has it's contents randomised.
