Note - the kernel config parser ignores "# foo is unset" comments so they have no effect; disabling kernel modules would break *everything* and so is ill-suited for a general-purpose kernel anyway --- the hardened nixos profile provides a more flexible solution - removed some overlap with the common config (SECCOMP is *required* by systemd; YAMA is enabled by default). - MODIFY_LDT_SYSCALL is guarded by EXPERT on vanilla so setting it to y breaks the build; fix by making it optional - restored some original comments which I feel are clearer
