If you are not using a security module that requires using

+config EXT2_FS_SUIDDIR
+ bool "Ext2fs SUID on Directory Extension"
+ depends on EXT2_FS
+ ---help---
+ As you might know, the SGID flag has a special function on
+ directories: files within that directories will be owned by
+ the same group that also owns the directory - which is useful
+ for creating directories which are shared between the members
+ of a group.
+
+ But that only makes sense if the umask is set to give full
+ permissions to the group (e.g. 007 or 002). Noone would do that
+ if there is a system-wide 'users' group - so some distributions
+ add an extra group for every user which lets the /etc/group
+ file grow very fast and makes the admins life harder ...
+
+ Activating this feture adds a function to the SUID flag on
+ directories, which usually has no function at all:
+
+ If the SUID flag is set for a diectory, all new files in that
+ directory will get the same rights in the group-field as they
+ have in their user-field. So, if one sets both - SUID and SGID
+ - on a directory, it will also work with a umask like 022 or
+ 077 and there is no more need for an extra group for every user.
+
+ Also, the SUID flag will be set to all subdirectories of a
+ SUID directory (as it is already now with the SGID flag on
+ directories).
