[RFC PATCH 1/2] mm/nvidmm: Drop x86 dependency on nvdimm e820 device

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

 



This patch adds new Kconfig variable PMEM_PLATFORM_DEVICE and use that to select
the nvdimm e820 device. The x86 config is now named X86_PMEM_LEGACY_DEVICE.
