Subject: [PATCH] virtio-mem: Fix build error due to improper use 'select'
Date: Fri, 19 Jun 2020 16:03:33 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200619080333.194753-1-chenweilong@huawei.com> (raw)

As noted in:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.txt
"select should be used with care. select will force a symbol to a
value without visiting the dependencies."
Config VIRTIO_MEM should not select CONTIG_ALLOC directly.
Otherwise it will cause an error:
