Subject: [PATCH] kconfig: remove EXPERT from CHECKPOINT_RESTORE
Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2018 15:07:33 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180712130733.11510-1-adrian@lisas.de> (raw)

The CHECKPOINT_RESTORE configuration option was introduced in 2012 and
combined with EXPERT. CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is already enabled in many
distribution kernels and also part of the defconfigs of various
architectures.

To make it easier for distributions to enable CHECKPOINT_RESTORE this
removes EXPERT and moves the configuration option out of the EXPERT
block.
