Subject: [patch 1/3] xtensa: remove duplicate CONFIG_HOTPLUG definition
Date: Tue,  4 Sep 2012 17:01:06 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120904235155.064688725@clark.kroah.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120904234803.554552301@clark.kroah.org>

[-- Attachment #1: xtensa-remove-duplicate-config_hotplug-definition.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1508 bytes --]

From: Greg KH <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

As part of the plan to remove CONFIG_HOTPLUG, it was found that xtensa
duplicates this config option for no reason (it's already defined as part of
init/Kconfig).  This patch removes it from the xtensa-only Kconfig file.

-config HOTPLUG
-	bool "Support for hot-pluggable devices"
-	help
-	  Say Y here if you want to plug devices into your computer while
-	  the system is running, and be able to use them quickly.  In many
-	  cases, the devices can likewise be unplugged at any time too.
-
-	  One well known example of this is PCMCIA- or PC-cards, credit-card
-	  size devices such as network cards, modems or hard drives which are
-	  plugged into slots found on all modern laptop computers.  Another
-	  example, used on modern desktops as well as laptops, is USB.
-
-	  Enable HOTPLUG and build a modular kernel.  Get agent software
-	  (from <http://linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net/>) and install it.
-	  Then your kernel will automatically call out to a user mode "policy
-	  agent" (/sbin/hotplug) to load modules and set up software needed
-	  to use devices as you hotplug them.
