From 03502faa259bce35317a32afe79b7c69f507e14a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adrian Bunk Date: Sun, 3 Feb 2008 15:50:21 +0200 Subject: remove Documentation/smp.txt After seeing the filename I'd have expected something about the implementation of SMP in the Linux kernel - not some notes on kernel configuration and building trivialities noone would search at this place.
