Wee.

Shouldn't it be default BR2_LINUX_2_6_STABLE instead so you don't need
to go and change this all the time?

Get rid of the help text. You cannot see it in make menuconfig and
it's just more text that might get out of sync with the symbols.

Why the move?

Time machine? ;)

Why add it then? What happens if you select it?

Does it make sense to have an option for this? That one changes almost
every day.
