BR2_DL_DIR already there no patch needed... why do you need to move it
around so much it needs to be in menuconfig?
also I disagree with patching distclean, then it will not behave the
way all other distcleans everywhere behave. Make a new option instead
(though for the life of me I can't figure out what you'd need it for)
my $0.02,
