    Well, it's not _badly_ organized, but it appears more poorly organized
when compared with the NOTES files (to me at least :-).

    One way or another, it would make it much easier to build custom kernel
configs if they had the _same_ organization. :-)

    Perhaps mostly pushing the NOTES files in the direction of GENERIC, with
some small tweaks to GENERIC to clean it up a bit?
