[PATCH] sched: Tweak default dynamic preempt mode selection
From: Valentin Schneider
Date: Fri Nov 05 2021 - 06:41:05 EST
Commit c597bfddc9e9 ("sched: Provide Kconfig support for default dynamic
preempt mode") changed the selectable config names for the preemption
model. This means a config file must now select
CONFIG_PREEMPT_BEHAVIOUR=y
rather than
CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
to get a preemptible kernel. This means all arch config files need to be
updated - right now arm64 defconfig selects CONFIG_PREEMPT=y but ends up
with CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE_BEHAVIOUR=y.
Instead, have CONFIG_*PREEMPT be the selectable configs again, and make
them select their _BEHAVIOUR equivalent if CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC is set.
