hm, indeed.
Still ... the Kconfig glue looks a bit weird - it's almost never a
good idea to put 'NOT' (or any other logic operator) into a config
name. Why not make this CONFIG_STANDARD_X86_FEATURES and allow it to
be disabled when CONFIG_EMBEDDED is enabled? This way it's not just a
debug thing but also a kernel sizing feature.
