You mean 'src/Kconfig' ?

This is a layering violation. We shouldn't have hardware-specific options in
top-level Kconfig. This should be moved to southbridge Kconfig, and not depend
on LOGLEVEL. Maybe we need to move ME handling to a common dir and handle the
Kconfigs there.

Smells like copypasta. Yet another reason to consider unifying ME handling
across southbridges.

I don't blame you for not owning and/or not wanting to own intel hardware.
