Looks a lot cleaner!

Please split out the config_enabled() change into a separate
patch and Cc: Linus on the resend.

I like your idea of allowing config_enabled(SMP) as well,
there's no reason to say 'config' twice. It's too easy to get
this wrong and AFAICS there's no build error if we are using a
non-existent config flag, right?

Thanks,
