[Qemu-devel] [PULL 6/9] qemu-options: Deprecate -nodefconfig

[Eduardo Habkost <ehabkost@redhat.com>]

Since 2012 (commit ba6212d8 "Eliminate cpus-x86_64.conf file") we
have no default config files that would be disabled using
-nodefconfig.  Update documentation and document -nodefconfig as
deprecated.
