I vote for now :-) I don't think it is last-minute as we still have
almost 2 months to the release. There is plenty of time to resolve any
problems that come up. Also from a driver model perspective I would
rather have this change in now since we have PCI, Ethernet and USB all
adding Kconfig options, and reworking this stuff is painful.

Simon
