So does that mean that a simple

config NUMA
	bool
	help
		some help text

in mm/Kconfig will have no effect on the defaults and dependencies if
"config NUMA" is specified elsewhere?  (except to add the needed
__enabled_CONFIG_NUMA defines, of course).  If that is the case, then
that is what we should add, right?
