[PATCH] x86/kconfig: remove misleading note regarding hibernation and KASLR

Show all headers | View raw

From: Niklas Cassel <niklas.cassel@axis.com>

There used to be a restriction with KASLR and hibernation, but this is no

x86 hibernation restrictions") the parameter "kaslr" does no longer exist.
