			Andrew Morton suggested to move kprobes from kernel hacking menu, since kernel hacking menu is in-appropriate for the Kprobes. This patch moves Kprobes and Oprofile under instrumentation menu. (akpm: it's not a natural fit, but things like djprobes and the s390 guys' statistics library need a home) Signed-of-by: Prasanna S Panchamukhi <prasanna@in.ibm.com> Cc: Philippe Elie <phil.el@wanadoo.fr> Cc: John Levon <levon@movementarian.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>

 | |
| 	  OProfile is a profiling system capable of profiling the
 | |
| 	  whole system, include the kernel, kernel modules, libraries,
 | |
| 	  and applications.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 	  Due to firmware bugs, you may need to use the "nohalt" boot
 | |
| 	  option if you're using OProfile with the hardware performance
 | |
| 	  counters.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 	  If unsure, say N.
