Subject: [PATCH v1 04/14] RISC-V: paravirt: Add kconfigs
Date: Tue,  5 Dec 2023 19:11:24 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231205181119.207204-20-ajones@ventanamicro.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231205181119.207204-16-ajones@ventanamicro.com>

Now that we can support steal-time accounting, add the kconfig
knobs allowing it to be enabled.
