Yes, I missed the fact that there won't be any discarded sections
anymore. Btw, in that case, you'd probably need to remove all those

#ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG

#endif

stanzas surrounding different places in the kernel (I see 40ish
currenty) now that HOTPLUG is def_bool y and if you haven't done so yet.

Thanks for explaining.

Btw, you can have my
