/me throws a party :)

I can imagine the case where someone will want a CONFIG to choose the
default, but yes, I love it. Thank you!

For example:

enum cfi_mode {
	CFI_OFF = 0,
	CFI_KCFI = 1,
	CFI_FINEIBT = 2,
};

#define CFI_DEFAULT	CONFIG_CFI_MODE


choice
	prompt "CFI mode" if expert
	default CFI_MODE_FINEIBT

	config CFI_MODE_FINEIBT
		bool "FineIBT"
        config CFI_MODE_KCFI
		bool "kCFI"
	config CFI_MODE_OFF
		bool "CFI disabled"
endchoice

config CFI_MODE
	int
	default "0" if CFI_MODE_OFF
	default "1" if CFI_MODE_KCFI
	default "2"
