This looks like a bad solution: CONFIG_NLS is nothing more than a menu
selector for the NLS subsystem. The problem is that selecting it will
allow a kernel to be build with NLS and without NLS_DEFAULT which is
going to cause all sorts of interesting problems on boot. I think you
really mean depends on NLS here.
