kaiser: KAISER depends on SMP
It is absurd that KAISER should depend on SMP, but apparently nobody has tried a UP build before: which breaks on implicit declaration of function 'per_cpu_offset' in arch/x86/mm/kaiser.c. Now, you would expect that to be trivially fixed up; but looking at the System.map when that block is #ifdef'ed out of kaiser_init(), I see that in a UP build __per_cpu_user_mapped_end is precisely at __per_cpu_user_mapped_start, and the items carefully gathered into that section for user-mapping on SMP, dispersed elsewhere on UP. So, some other kind of section assignment will be needed on UP, but implementing that is not a priority: just make KAISER depend on SMP for now. Also inserted a blank line before the option, tidied up the brief Kconfig help message, and added an "If unsure, Y".
