6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Alexander Mikhalitsyn <redacted> commit 97154bcf4d1b7cabefec8a72cff5fbb91d5afb7b upstream. Let's make CONFIG_UNIX a bool instead of a tristate. We've decided to do that during discussion about SCM_PIDFD patchset [1].
