[PATCH] kdump: enable CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE by default
Everybody seems to be using /proc/vmcore as a method to access the kernel crash dump. Hence probably it makes sense to enable CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE by default if CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP is selected. This makes kdump configuration further easier for a user. Signed-off-by: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
