Yeah -- whenever we want, we can move everything to the CFI one, and
hopefully many users that enabled it will not see the prompt since
they will already have the value there already.
Kconfig doesn't save the unset value in this case, so some users will
still see the prompt. Which I guess is good for the GCC users, since
for them it is a new possibility after all, that they should consider.
I didn't really test it thoroughly though. Caveat emptor and all that...
Cheers,
Miguel
