Hi,
When I chose to enable CONFIG_IO_URING, I found that CONFIG_IO_URING can also be enabled when
CONFIG_EXPERT is n. It seems that other macros are in a similar situation, so is this reasonable?
Symbol: IO_URING [=y]
Type : bool
Defined at init/Kconfig:1726
Prompt: Enable IO uring support
Visible if: EXPERT [=n]
Location:
-> General setup
(1) -> Configure standard kernel features (expert users) (EXPERT [=n])
-> Enable IO uring support (IO_URING [=y])
Selects: IO_WQ [=n]
Selected by [n]:
- BLK_DEV_UBLK [=n] && BLK_DEV [=y]

The point of EXPERT isn't to make certain things only enableable if
EXPRT is set, it's just controls the visibility of the symbols. As your
quote shows too:
