Commit Message

Krzysztof Kozlowski June 4, 2019, 6:52 p.m. UTC
Remove the CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER_PATH because:
1. It is disabled since commit 1be01d4a5714 ("driver: base: Disable
   CONFIG_UEVENT_HELPER by default") as its dependency (UEVENT_HELPER) was
   made default to 'n',
2. It is not recommended (help message: "This should not be used today
   [...] creates a high system load") and was kept only for ancient
   userland,
3. Certain userland specifically requests it to be disabled (systemd
   README: "Legacy hotplug slows down the system and confuses udev").

Hi Arnd and Olof,

Do you want to apply it directly or maybe I can send it along with
other my defconfig pull request?

Best regards,
Krzysztof

Oh, just saw v3, since it didn't thread with v2.

Applied already with the equivalent fixups, so we're good.
