* [PATCH 0/7] [TRIVIAL] Cleanup spurious CONFIGs

Jiri,

I trust these are low-risk enough to be considered 'trivial'.
I noticed a recent typo correction patch to do with a CONFIG,
and immediately presumed that this could be a common type of
error, so went grepping. Many were found, but it wasn't obvious
what to do with all of them. These 7 seemed pretty easy to fix,
though.

Cheers,
Phil

There is, however, CONFIG_GENERIC_CALIBRATE_DELAY.

Part of a shotgun patchset; found by greps, seds, and diffs
rather than actual understanding.

Seems like there was a decade ago, but no longer, so this block
is dead code. The list being returned disappeared back in commit
ff57ab21995a8636cfc72efeebb09cc6034d756f.

So this is dead code. That, and it appears KTHREAD_SIZE
isn't used anywhere else in the kernel, so purging the
whole if/else.

When you quote a commit, short form followed by the name (i.e.
one-line form) is preferable because it gives context to the commit
without needing to go look it up in a git tree. Commit IDs are not
human readable, while commit log should be.

The commit in question - ff57ab2 ("xfs: convert xfsbud shrinker to a
per-buftarg shrinker.") - removed the list but the code being
removed was already long dead. FWIW, I know just by reading the
commit description when the list went away and who was responsible
for missing that. i.e. me. ;)

Not necessary in a commit description - the zero patch of a series,
yes, to describe how the issues were found, but it doesn't need to
be recorded forever in the commit log. ;)

Yeah, I was wondering how to do that. The idea of cc:ing about 30
people for the whole set seemed a bit too spammy, and wasn't sure if
individually-selected cc:lists for eack of the patches made sense.
The alternative was to make it 7 (or more...) independent patchsets, 
but that turned the task into too much of a game of chess. I chickened 
out of thinking more, and cowardly went for the 'trivial' route.

I realised after sending that a truly trivial patch still hadn't 
been done - there are a whole bunch of comments or printk strings
that refer to the wrong options that I forgot to fix. So there
will be a v2.

Yup, good point, I can clean that up.
