Subject: [PATCH] x86 VSDO: fix Kconfig help
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2009 15:46:52 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4AF9FB6C.70003@oracle.com> (raw)

From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@oracle.com>

COMPAT_VDSO has 2 help text blocks, but kconfig only uses the
last one found, so merge the 2 blocks.

It would be real nice if kconfig would warn about this.
