That doesn't match what we actually do.  For example, INET and INET6 are in
both, SMP, SOFTUPDATES, etc.  I think you can go through amd64 GENERIC and
every option in it is in NOTES except now for PPS_SYNC.

I ran this before your commit:

% awk '/^(device|options)/ { print $2 }' GENERIC | sort > one
% awk '/^(device|options)/ { print $2 }' ../../conf/NOTES ../../x86/conf/NOTES NOTES | sort > two

Items only in GENERIC (I would say most of these are probably bugs in the form of
missing entries in NOTES, ULE is 4BSD in NOTES instead, and VERBOSE_SYSINIT
has the default value of 1 in NOTES):

% > comm -23 one two
AH_AR5416_INTERRUPT_MITIGATION
ATH_ENABLE_11N
BUF_TRACKING
DDB_CTF
FIB_ALGO
FULL_BUF_TRACKING
IOMMU
KDTRACE_FRAME
PRINTF_BUFR_SIZE=128
RACCT_DEFAULT_TO_DISABLED
SCHED_ULE
VERBOSE_SYSINIT=0
ath_pci
ocs_fc
pvscsi
tws
vge

The number of options duplicated in both NOTES and GENERIC:

% comm -12 one two | wc -l
      259
