+menu "Live Update"
KHO can be used without Live Update, let's make this "Kexec HandOver and Live Update"
IMO the current menu name is OK, as it is an option presented only to users configuring the kernel, my rational for that thinking is that KHO is an independent module, but it should be enabled as a dependency by other kernel features that require it.
