Expand the configuration API to allow dynamic runtime load and unload of configurations and features. On load, configurations and features are tagged with a "load owner" that is used to determine sets that were loaded together in a given API call. To unload the API uses the load owner to unload all elements previously loaded by that owner. The API also records the order in which different owners loaded their elements into the system. Later loading configurations can use previously loaded features, creating load dependencies. Therefore unload is enforced strictly in the reverse order to load. A load owner will be an additional loadable module, or a configuration loaded via configfs.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
