[PATCH tip/core/rcu 23/24] rcu: Remove prompt for RCU implementation

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Tue May 12 2015 - 18:32:27 EST


From: Pranith Kumar <bobby.prani@xxxxxxxxx>

The RCU implementation is chosen based on PREEMPT and SMP config options
and is not really a user-selectable choice. This commit removes the
menu entry, given that there is not much point in calling something a
choice when there is in fact no choice.. The TINY_RCU, TREE_RCU, and
PREEMPT_RCU Kconfig options continue to be selected based solely on the
values of the PREEMPT and SMP options.

This option selects the RCU implementation that is

is not required. This option greatly reduces the
memory footprint of RCU.
