[PATCH 3/4 v2] xen kconfig: add dom0 support help text

From: Andrew Jones <hidden>
Date: 2012-01-11 16:36:40
Also in: xen-devel
Subsystem: the rest, x86 architecture (32-bit and 64-bit), xen hypervisor x86 · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Thomas Gleixner, Ingo Molnar, Borislav Petkov, Dave Hansen, Juergen Gross

Possibly related (same subject, not in this thread)

Describe dom0 support in the config menu and supply help text for it.

v2 adds 'if EXPERT' to keep it out of the "standard" menu.
