You mean 'src/Kconfig' ?

This is a layering violation. We shouldn't have hardware-specific options in top-level Kconfig. This should be moved to southbridge Kconfig, and not depend on LOGLEVEL. Maybe we need to move ME handling to a common dir and handle the Kconfigs there.
which seems odd as currently other chipsets needing the Intel Management Engine were submitted.
$ git grep DEBUG_INTEL_ME [...]
Smells like copypasta. Yet another reason to consider unifying ME handling across southbridges.
I am unable to test this, so it would be great if somebody else could fix this.
I don't blame you for not owning and/or not wanting to own intel hardware.
