From 41a2901e7d220875752a8c870e0b53288a578c20 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Fri, 12 May 2017 15:56:35 -0700 Subject: rcu: Remove SPARSE_RCU_POINTER Kconfig option The sparse-based checking for non-RCU accesses to RCU-protected pointers has been around for a very long time, and it is now the only type of sparse-based checking that is optional. This commit therefore makes it unconditional. Reported-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Paul E.
