Subject: [RFC PATCH] rcu: config: Remove prompt for RCU implementation
Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2015 17:29:42 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1429651783-7754-1-git-send-email-bobby.prani@gmail.com> (raw)

The RCU implementation which is chosen is dependent on PREEMPT and SMP config
options and is not really a user-selectable choice. The following change will
remove the menu entry and will be derived from the above two options.
