Subject: [PATCH] misc devices: Do not enable by default
Date: Sat, 28 Aug 2010 13:07:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100828110712.GA25785@liondog.tnic> (raw)
Do not enable this Kconfig menu by default since it contains devices not
present on the majority of systems.
Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de>

This is becoming a pain and a waste of time especially when doing a
bunch of kernel builds on different systems daily and have to answer
"make oldconfig" prompts for strange devices.

Say Y here to get to see options for device drivers from various
different categories. This option alone does not add any kernel code.
