This change enables Netlink connector (CONFIG_CONNECTOR) and process event notifications
(CONFIG_PROC_EVENTS) in the kernel configuration. These are required for the
project https://github.com/qualcomm/userspace-resource-manager , which depends on real-time process events for
efficient process classification and tuning.

These options allow the kernel to send process lifecycle events
(fork, exec, exit) to userspace via Netlink connector. This is required for
userspace process management tools like userspace-resource-manager to classify
and tune resources without polling /proc.

Why are you not adding these in the qcom.config in the kernel tree?
