Yeah, let's make it easy to use and enable.
If it was split, the options would likely interact anyway (ie any option that enables "add_timer()" to run on arbitrary cpu's wouldl automatically also affect "queue_delayed_work()"), so it's not like it would really be truly independent issues anyway.
And if it does show an oops or other problem due to some broken expectations, I'd hope the oops should be enough to show what the problem is. It did for the vmstat case.
