buildroot: split Kernel config options to Config-kernel.in
The number of Linux kernel related config options has become quite big over the past few months, they deserve their own Config-kernel.in file. Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli <florian@openwrt.org> SVN-Revision: 38524

Provides a memory resource controller that manages both anonymous

20(40)bytes/PAGE_SIZE on 32(64)bit system will be occupied by memory

Only enable when you're ok with these trade offs and really

sure you need the memory resource controller. Even when you enable

this, you can set "cgroup_disable=memory" at your boot option to
|

disable memory resource controller and you can avoid overheads.

Add swap management feature to memory resource controller. When you

when you disable this, memory resource controller has no cares to
|

usage of swap...a process can exhaust all of the swap. This extension
|

is useful when you want to avoid exhaustion swap but this itself
|

adds more overheads and consumes memory for remembering information.
|

Especially if you use 32bit system or small memory system, please
|
||||
be careful about enabling this. When memory resource controller
|
||||
is disabled by boot option, this will be automatically disabled and
|

there will be no overhead from this. Even when you set this config=y,

if boot option "swapaccount=0" is set, swap will not be accounted.

adds more overheads and consumes memory for remembering information.

be careful about enabling this. When memory resource controller
