I think this is a very good point.
I would go further than this, and wholesale import the relevant files
into a subdirectory in a single commit that contains nothing else, and
mention the specific git commit id and version number in the Linux
tree in the commit message.
Something like
Import scripts/kconfig from Linux 4.2.0 commit id abcdefgh into our
own xen/scripts/kconfig. So far, these are unused - they will be
wired into our own build system shortly.
Ian.
