The ANDROID config symbol is only used to guard the binder config symbol and to inject completely random config changes. Remove it as it is obviously a bad idea.

Ick, rcu and random driver changes? That's not ok, I'll go queue this up, if Android devices need to make these core changes, they can do that in their kernel or submit a patch that makes sense for everyone.

Also, one meta-comment:

kernel/configs/android-base.config | 1 -

This whole file can be deleted now, with the way Android kernels are now being managed it makes no sense anymore. I'll write up a patch to do that later tonight.
