How to force Kconfig tristate into range n..m?

[Paul E. McKenney]

Hello!

It would be nice to constrain RCU_TORTURE_TEST to "n" or "m", excluding
"y", since "y" gives anti-social results that I have never seen a use
for.  So I tried adding a "range n m" to the Kconfig.debug entry for
RCU_TORTURE_TEST.  This gives me the following warning at "make xconfig"
time:

   lib/Kconfig.debug:386:warning: range is only allowed for int or hex symbols

and xconfig ignores the restriction.

A few clumsy hacks get rid of the error message, but fail to cause
xconfig to enforce the limit.

Is there some other way to prohibit modules from being compiled into
the main kernel?

						Thanx, Paul
