From 6da0b38f4433fb0f24615449d7966471b6e5eae0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Dobriyan Date: Mon, 20 Oct 2008 22:28:45 +0400 Subject: fs/Kconfig: move ext2, ext3, ext4, JBD, JBD2 out Use fs/*/Kconfig more, which is good because everything related to one filesystem is in one place and fs/Kconfig is quite fat.
