[PATCH 2/3] fs/: Move eCryptfs & Unionfs config options into a sub-menu

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

 



Using The Misc filesystems sub-menu for layered/stackable filesystems only
makes it harder for users to find eCryptfs/Unionfs.

Additionally, the menu can be easily turned into a menuconfig, which could
be used to turn on any VFS/VM functionality required by layered filesystems
(there is none at the moment).
