Enable the cuse module to support the character device interface in userspace drivers.

It looks like arch/x86/configs/nati_x86_64_defconfig was edited manually or not passed through make savedefconfig. I'm seeing a diff if I use savedefconfig.

Can you use these steps to make the edit:

• start from a clean state make mrproper
• load the previous configuration make nati_x86_64_defconfig
• make the desired change to enable CONFIG_CUSE for example via make menuconfig or other means
• save your changes with make savedefconfig; this creates a defconfig file which is the compressed .config
• update nati_x86_64_defconfig with this new change by mv defconfig arch/x86/configs/nati_x86_64_defconfig

This ensures that future edits to nati_x86_64_defconfig have clean diffs.

Hi @gratian i edit the arch/x86/configs/nati_x86_64_defconfig manually to keep the changes small. If you prefer to use the menuconfig workflow, I can do that too.

Hi @gratian thanks for the correction. I didn't realise that the branch was created under the ni account. I don't know how I could have done that. I thought the branch was always created under the own login. Next time I'll have to look more closely.

I can understand about the clean git history. We do it that way here too. I'm probably spoiled by gitlab. With gitlab you can set it up so that a squash of changes happens automatically. I will combine all the adjustments into one commit next time.

Thank you very much.
