-Option names and configuration symbols based on kernel v6.12.
+Compiling a custom kernel typically involves removing everything deemed
+unnecessary. This ensures the fastest and most secure kernel, as there is no
+faster and safer code than nonexistent code. Unfortunately, it's easy to remove
+too much: non-obvious elements that are essential for everyday work.
