[RFC PATCH 1/3] kbuild: Warn on selecting symbols with unmet direct dependencies
The "select" statement in Kconfig files allows the enabling of options even if they have unmet direct dependencies (i.e. "depends on" expands to "no"). Currently, the "depends on" clauses are used in calculating the visibility but they do not affect the reverse dependencies in any way. The patch introduces addit... 8 Jun 2010 12:35

[RFC PATCH 3/3] Change DEBUG_PAGEALLOC dependency on ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
DEBUG_PAGEALLOC currently depends on ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC. However, it is selected by PAGE_POISONING which depends on !ARCH_SUPPORTS_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC. This patch changes the DEBUG_PAGEALLOC entry so that the dependency is moved to the definition line rather than having an explicit "depends on" line. S... 8 Jun 2010 12:35

This is version 2 of the page cache control patches for KVM. This series has two patches, the first controls the amount of unmapped page cache usage via a boot parameter and sysctl.
