Subject: [PATCH] make BINFMT_FLAT a bool
I have not yet seen anyone saying he has a reasonable use case for using
BINFMT_FLAT modular on his embedded device.
Considering that fs/binfmt_flat.c even lacks a MODULE_LICENSE() I really doubt
there is any, and this patch therefore makes BINFMT_FLAT a bool.
