From 18215323070ee00240879429224511af43bbc14d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vivien Didelot Date: Thu, 5 Mar 2015 12:55:12 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] linux: clarify kernel configuration entries Since BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_CONFIG_FILE can either be a complete .config file or a defconfig file, it can be confusing to the user whether to choose BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_USE_DEFCONFIG or BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_USE_CUSTOM_CONFIG. To avoid that confusion, clarify Kconfig entry messages for in-tree defconfig and custom (def)config files. Signed-off-by: Vivien Didelot Acked-by: "Yann E.
