Subject: [PATCH 04/21] KEYS: Move the key config into security/keys/Kconfig [ver #3]
Date: Fri, 02 Dec 2011 18:43:17 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111202184317.21874.49113.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20111202184229.21874.25782.stgit@warthog.procyon.org.uk>

Move the key config into security/keys/Kconfig as there are going to be a lot
of key-related options.
