build kernel with autofs4 built-in (systemd will modprobe it anyway, but we could save some boot time by not having to do so).
What I always liked on (Open)SuSE kernel is the modularity. If you don't use a device or a filesystem, you don't waste memory and time with its driver as it is built as a module. Building something like autofs hard into the image would go exactly against this philosophy.
Not really, if systemd will modprobe it at early boot, not having statically linked is just a waste of time. I'm wondering, though, how big that time saving can be, and how big should it be to justify such a move. Not even a second would compel me to change the kernel (and a second for a modprobe would be excessive already). IMO, a waste of kernel team time.
