    There's no problem with hiding per se, but rather with the indentation
    level. It's most natural for the user to have dependent options
    indented under their "parent". For an example, in "menuconfig" try
    setting "Compile the kernel with frame unwind information";
    notice that "Stack unwind support" appears immediately underneath
    it, indented. The indentation reminds the user why "Stack unwind
    support" has appeared.

    Note that several of the pre-existing, non-fault-injection options
    under "Kernel debugging", are also broken in this way.
