This one looks nice. I still think that hardware port support should go
first. My argument is:

When I go into a menu I explore option and submenus from top to bottom.
So I will see PS/2 or serial, and will go there and select what I need.
Then I will see that generic input layer is also needed for keyboard
and go there.

If generic layer is first one I select options I think are needed I could
skip over the HW I/O ports thinking that I already selected everything I
need as far as keyboard/mouse goes.

Does this make any sense?
