it's great stuff! I very much think it's fine in lib/Kconfig.debug - we 
need prominence of debugging options. (they are used way too 
infrequently)

My only suggestion would be to move the new entry below the existing 
firewire entry (PROVIDE_OHCI1394_DMA_INIT) there - which also happens to 
avoid this particular merge conflict.
