Help text

Say Y here if you want the kernel to run a short self-test during bootup. The self-test checks whether common types of locking bugs are detected by debugging mechanisms or not. (if you disable lock debugging then those bugs won't be detected of course.) The following locking APIs are covered: spinlocks, rwlocks, mutexes and rwsems.
