memcg: get rid of swapaccount leftovers

2013-08-23T16:51:22Z

The swapaccount kernel parameter without any values has been removed by commit a2c8990aed5a ("memsw: remove noswapaccount kernel parameter") but it seems that we didn't get rid of all the left overs. Make sure that menuconfig help text and kernel-parameters.txt are clear about value for the paramter and remove the stalled comment which is not very much useful on its own.

rcu: Select IRQ_WORK from TREE_PREEMPT_RCU

2013-08-19T00:40:25Z

TREE_RCU and TREE_PREEMPT_RCU both cause kernel/rcutree.c to be built, but only TREE_RCU selects IRQ_WORK, which can result in an undefined reference to irq_work_queue for some (random) configs: kernel/built-in.o In function `rcu_start_gp_advanced': kernel/rcutree.c:1564: undefined reference to `irq_work_queue' Select IRQ_WORK from TREE_PREEMPT_RCU too to fix this.

modules: do not depend on kconfig to set 'modules' option to symbol MODULES

2013-08-15T20:56:08Z

Currently, the MODULES symbol is special-cased in different places in the kconfig language. For example, if no symbol is defined to enable tristates, then kconfig looks up for a symbol named 'MODULES', and forces the 'modules' option onto that symbol. This causes problems as such: - since MODULES is special-cased, reading the configuration with KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG set will forcibly set MODULES to be 'valid' (ie. it has a valid value), when no such value was previously set. So MODULES defaults to 'n' unless it is present in KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG - other third-party projects may decide that 'MODULES' plays a different role for them This has been exposed by cset #cfa98f2e: kconfig: do not override symbols already set and reported by Stephen in: http://marc.info/?l=linux-next&m=137592137915234&w=2 As suggested by Sam, we explicitly define the MODULES symbol to be the tristate-enabler. This will allow us to drop special-casing of MODULES in the kconfig language, later. (Note: this patch is not a fix to Stephen's issue, just a first step).

slub: don't use cpu partial pages on UP

cpu partial pages are used to avoid contention which does not exist in the UP case. So let SLUB_CPU_PARTIAL depend on SMP. Acked-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König Signed-off-by: Pekka Enberg
