From: Paul Gortmaker <[email protected]> This bit of information is in the Kconfig help text:
"Note the boot CPU will still be kept outside the range to handle the timekeeping duty." However neither the variable NO_HZ_FULL_ALL, or the prompt convey this important detail, so lets add it to the prompt to make it more explicitly obvious to the average user. Acked-by: Paul E.
