Subject: [PATCH] Kconfig: SLUB is the default slab allocator
Date: Wed, 05 Nov 2008 22:18:19 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <49121BAB.3030403@simon.arlott.org.uk> (raw)
In 2007, a0acd820807680d2ccc4ef3448387fcdbf152c73 changed the default
slab allocator to SLUB, but the SLAB help text still says SLAB is the
default. This change fixes that.
