s/debugging/support/ or whatever your favorite term is for
more verbose output. e.g.
EMBEDDED was just considered as a "trigger" to enable/disable the question.

SCSI subsystem offers CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS and CONFIG_SCSI_LOGGING.
I'd be just as happy to make the default Y for IB_CONSTANTS (I just
made that up) and not depend on CONFIG_EMBEDDED.
