50KB * 1000 VMs == 50 MB.... and I'm also wondering if this increases a
container size, and slows down boot time, which there is a push to reduce, not
increase (by a death of a thousand cuts).
As probinson stated, read the manual/docs on where to get the info.
sure, in theory you could make a custom/target kernel and not create or
install the /boot/config-* file, but if one is hacking, then this case doesn't
justify this need, impacting the memory footprint of all non-fiddling-with-
kernel customers.
So, without approval from (a) virt team and (b) openshift team -- the heavy,
orders-of-magnitude consumers of this change, then this shouldn't be added to
RHEL.
