From 9dd1220114e00d8ec5cdc20085bbe198b21e1985 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josh Boyer Date: Mon, 11 Nov 2013 09:08:15 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] smp/cpumask: Make CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y usable without debug dependency When CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK was added in 2008, it was dependent upon CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS being enabled, or an architecture could select it. The debug dependency adds additional overhead that isn't required for operation of the feature and which is undesirable for distro kernels. CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y is needed to increase the CONFIG_NR_CPUS value beyond 512 on x86. So drop the current dependency, its only real dependency is CONFIG_SMP=y.
