| Enables the display of the minimum amount of free stack which each |

| This option will slow down process creation somewhat. |

| Unmap pages from the kernel linear mapping after free_pages(). |
| This results in a large slowdown, but helps to find certain types |
| of memory corruptions. |

| If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will be slightly larger |
| and slower, but it will give very useful debugging information. |
| If you don't debug the kernel, you can say N, but we may not be able |
| to solve problems without frame pointers. |
