Merge tag 'topic/kcmp-kconfig-2021-02-22' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm/drm
Pull kcmp kconfig update from Daniel Vetter: "Make the kcmp syscall available independently of checkpoint/restore. drm userspaces uses this, systemd uses this, so makes sense to pull it out from the checkpoint-restore bundle. Kees reviewed this from security pov and is happy with the final version" Link: https://lwn.net/Articles/845448/ * tag 'topic/kcmp-kconfig-2021-02-22' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm/drm: kcmp: Support selection of SYS_kcmp without CHECKPOINT_RESTORE
