[PATCH] arm: tidy up DEBUG_LL list

Domenico Andreoli domenico.andreoli at linux.com
Thu Sep 1 04:37:47 PDT 2016


Kernel low-level debugging configuration on ARM sports a long list of
options, many of these predating the multi-architecture age when each
was on its own. As a result the list is not readable at its best.

This patch attempts to tidy up things, exposing only the significant
information.
