Subject: [PATCH] clocksource: Make the int help prompt unit readable in ncurses
Date: Sun, 28 Apr 2024 12:21:43 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240428102143.26764-1-bp@kernel.org> (raw)

From: "Borislav Petkov (AMD)" <bp@alien8.de>

When doing

  make menuconfig

and searching for the CLOCKSOURCE_WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW_US config item, the
help says:

  │ Symbol: CLOCKSOURCE_WATCHDOG_MAX_SKEW_US [=125]
  │ Type  : integer
  │ Range : [50 1000]
  │ Defined at kernel/time/Kconfig:204
  │   Prompt: Clocksource watchdog maximum allowable skew (in   s)
  							     ^^^^^

  │   Depends on: GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS [=y] && CLOCKSOURCE_WATCHDOG [=y]

because on some terminals, it cannot display the 'μ' char, unicode
number 0x3bc.

So simply write it out so that there's no trouble.
