Half a filesystem is a logical component?

At the very least it wires up all the kconfig stuff _first_, so it
breaks the tree from about patch 3 until 13.

Doesn't matter.  The rule is stated as "kernel should compile at each
step", but the _real_ rule is "don't break git-bisect".

Compiling at each step is better than not. But my main point is
that it is superfluously broken into multiple patches.
