um: clean Kconfig up a bit
* kill duplicates with drivers/char/Kconfig
* take watchdog one into drivers/watchdog/Kconfig
* take mmapper to arch/um/Kconfig.um
* rename Kconfig.char menu to "UML Character Devices"

229 | help | ||
230 | This option enables UML's "hardware" random number generator. It | ||
231 | attaches itself to the host's /dev/random, supplying as much entropy | ||
232 | as the host has, rather than the small amount the UML gets from its | ||
233 | own drivers. It registers itself as a standard hardware random number | ||
234 | generator, major 10, minor 183, and the canonical device name is | ||
235 | /dev/hwrng. | ||
236 | The way to make use of this is to install the rng-tools package | ||
237 | (check your distro, or download from | ||
238 | http://sourceforge.net/projects/gkernel/). rngd periodically reads | ||
239 | /dev/hwrng and injects the entropy into /dev/random. | ||
