Just thinking aloud here, but it would be really neat if there was some
way to tell lin not to build a user-space module if the corresponding
kernel-space driver had already been configured into the current kernel.
A sort of CONFLICTS, but where you could give the kernel config option.

It would be also neat if it worked the other way too, where adding a
kernel-space driver to the configuration would check against all of the
user-space modules and give a warning. I suspect that's too difficult.
