Why introduce a Kconfig symbol for this, and not just spell the
initializer "IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT) ? 0 : 1" or simply
"!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT)"?

And if you do keep it in Kconfig, shouldn't the symbol be "depends on
COMPACTION" so it doesn't needlessly appear in .config when
!CONFIG_COMPACTION.
