For a single patch (not 2 or more in a series), please just use one
email with the patch description etc. in it.  No need for a cover letter.

The 2 lines above should be indented only with 1 tab.  They should not line up
with the help text above (help text is indented more than other Kconfig lines).

After that little style thing is fixed, you can add:

Reviewed-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org>
Tested-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org> # works for me

and even though this will disable the drivers that are listed immediately
inside this if/endif block, there are several other drivers that select VIRTIO,
so it can be slightly tricky to figure out what is causing CONFIG_VIRTIO
to be enabled after having disabled CONFIG_VIRTIO_MENU.

Thanks.
