Subject: [PATCH] kconfig: document oldnoconfig to what it really does in conf.c
Date: Fri, 17 Aug 2012 14:45:23 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1345185924-16005-1-git-send-email-adam8157@gmail.com> (raw)

As 67d34a6a391369269a2e5dba8a5f42cc4cd50231 said, the make target
'oldnoconfig' is a misnomer. It doesn't set new symbols to 'n', but
instead sets it to their default values.

This patch fixes the document in conf.c, and will submit another patch
to replace 'oldnoconfig' to 'olddefconfig'
