Because there is another option, ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS depending on EXPERT which uses the MIN/MAX range defined per architecture. Since it's an expert feature, we could as well ignore the MIN/MAX in Kconfig and just add BUILD_BUG_ON checks to the code. This way we could simply define them in C files. Alternatively, add arithmetics support to kbuild ;). -- Catalin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
