I'd rather keep them together: while removing the DEBUG_INFO is
now a NOP, keeping the two changes together explains much better
why this is done and is atomically needed based on the single patch
that caused the change.

It's the same with the LEDS patch that replaces the CONFIG_LEDS
option with CONFIG_NEW_LEDS.
