`whoami` == "eric"

Hi Eric,

I found the following code in drivers/scsi/Config.in:

if [ "`whoami`" = "eric" ]; then
dep_tristate 'SCSI debugging host adapter' CONFIG_SCSI_DEBUG $CONFIG_SCSI
fi

I'm trying to get rid of the `...` constructions in Config.in files.
Also, I think it's a little tacky to test against a specific login name
in released code. Would it be all right with you if I changed this to:

if [ "$CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL" = "y" ]; then
dep_tristate 'SCSI debugging host adapter' CONFIG_SCSI_DEBUG $CONFIG_SCSI
fi
