Well, since on Linux eal depends on pmu, disabling pmu ends up disabling eal, which breaks minimal build. As for the second question - no. I think ideally lib should remain optional. However, since trace is part of eal, that indirectly forces pmu to be built. Alternatively, I guess we could make the library explicitly optional by extra meson option. But given that there are already options for controlling libraries that approach is not perfect either.
