[for-next][PATCH 2/2] ktest: Make default build option oldconfig not randconfig
From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Wed Nov 13 2019 - 13:50:35 EST
From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>
For the last time, I screwed up my ktest config file, and the build went
into the default "randconfig", blowing away the .config that I had set up.
The reason for the default randconfig was because when this was first
written, I wanted to do a bunch of randconfigs. But as time progressed,
ktest isn't about randconfig anymore, and because randconfig destroys the
config in the build directory, it's a dangerous default to have. Use
oldconfig as the default.
