config IRLAN
	tristate "IrLAN protocol"
	depends on IRDA
	help
	  Say Y here if you want to build support for the IrLAN protocol.
	  To compile it as a module, choose M here: the module will be called
	  irlan.  IrLAN emulates an Ethernet and makes it possible to put up
	  a wireless LAN using infrared beams.

	  The IrLAN protocol can be used to talk with infrared access points
	  like the HP NetbeamIR, or the ESI JetEye NET.  You can also connect
	  to another Linux machine running the IrLAN protocol for ad-hoc
	  networking!

tracing: Fix hwlat kthread migration
The hwlat tracer creates a kernel thread at start of the tracer. It is pinned to a single CPU and will move to the next CPU after each period of running. If the user modifies the migration thread's affinity, it will not change after that happens. The original code created the thread at the first instance it was called, but later was changed to destroy the thread after the tracer was finished, and would not be created until the next instance of the tracer was established. The code that initialized the affinity was only called on the initial instantiation of the tracer. After that, it was not initialized, and the previous affinity did not match the current newly created one, making it appear that the user modified the thread's affinity when it did not, and the thread failed to migrate again.
