[RFC PATCH 3/3] Remove HAVE_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN option

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This option was created in commit 554b0004d0ec4 ("vtime: Add
HAVE_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN Kconfig") for architectures to indicate
they support the 64-bit cputime_t required for VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN.

The cputime_t type has since been removed, so this doesn't have any
meaning. Remove it.
