[-mm PATCH] EDAC: make Kconfig defaults match recommendations in help text

From: Jesper Juhl
Date: Sun Dec 11 2005 - 08:14:47 EST


"config EDAC" and "config EDAC_MM_EDAC" both state clearly that if the user
is unsure she should select "Y", yet the default for those options is "N".

This patch brings the default for the options into line with the
recommendation stated in the help text.

Please consider for inclusion.

help
Some systems are able to detect and correct errors in main
memory. EDAC can report statistics on memory error
detection and correction (EDAC - or commonly referred to ECC

occurred so that a particular failing memory module can be
replaced. If unsure, select 'Y'.
