Subject: [PATCH] Unhide DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE when EXPERT=y, even if DEBUG_KERNEL=n
Date: Sun, 5 Jun 2011 01:32:32 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110605083230.GA18260@leaf> (raw)

CONFIG_DEBUG_BUGVERBOSE defaults to y.  Embedded systems might want to
disable this to save space; however, disabling it requires enabling
CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL to see it.  Unhide it for CONFIG_EXPERT=y as well,
so it shows up as an option for embedded users without having to turn on
CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL.

Also make the option show up if CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y and
CONFIG_EXPERT=n, which seems sensible for a debug feature.

To me, it seemed highly counterintuitive to have to enable
CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL in order to *disable* debugging features; hence this
patch to expose one of the two that defaults to y.
