From ad50ff186e3544ce316bc24e8b37e82b840b42e1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Patrick Mochel Date: Mon, 8 Sep 2003 19:11:56 -0700 Subject: [power] Move PM options into kernel/power/Kconfig. - Add option for CONFIG_PM_DISK (suspend-to-disk functionality). - Other arch's should include this, instead of defining their own options.
