This topic came up today on #pkg-systemd (again).
Do you have any concerns regarding enabling CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS and if
not, it would be great if you could include that change in one of your
next uploads.

Otherwise the usefulness of systemd-bootchart is quite limited as it
will only work with self-compiled kernels.

Michael
