This means:

LZO as hidden option has no practical sense. Although LZO should be
auto-selected when some dependent project is selected (e.g. reieser4)
- there should be separate patch for this. Mixing such changes with
'core' LZO patch will just add side noise.

No, LZO as a visible option makes no practical sense. Why would anyone want to build LZO into a kernel when there are no in-kernel users of the code?

In fact, all of the library code should probably go this way...
