[PATCH] lockdep: i386 remove multi entry backtraces
Remove CONFIG_STACK_BACKTRACE_COLS. This feature didnt work out: instead of making kernel debugging more efficient, it produces much harder to read stacktraces! Check out this trace for example: http://static.flickr.com/47/158326090_35d0129147_b_d.jpg That backtrace could have been printed much nicer as a one-entry-per-line thing, taking the same amount of screen real-estate. Plus we remove 30 lines of kernel code as well. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
