lib/Kconfig.debug: kernel hacking menu: runtime testing: keep tests together

Expand the "Runtime testing" menu by including more entries inside it
instead of after it.  This is just Kconfig symbol movement.

This causes the (arch-independent) Runtime tests to be presented
(listed) all in one place instead of in multiple places.

config PROVIDE_OHCI1394_DMA_INIT
bool "Remote debugging over FireWire early on boot"
depends on PCI && X86
help
If you want to debug problems which hang or crash the kernel early
on boot and the crashing machine has a FireWire port, you can use
this feature to remotely access the memory of the crashed machine
over FireWire. This employs remote DMA as part of the OHCI1394
specification which is now the standard for FireWire controllers.
With remote DMA, you can monitor the printk buffer remotely using
firescope and access all memory below 4GB using fireproxy from gdb.
Even controlling a kernel debugger is possible using remote DMA.
Usage:
If ohci1394_dma=early is used as boot parameter, it will initialize
all OHCI1394 controllers which are found in the PCI config space.
As all changes to the FireWire bus such as enabling and disabling
devices cause a bus reset and thereby disable remote DMA for all
devices, be sure to have the cable plugged and FireWire enabled on
the debugging host before booting the debug target for debugging.
This code (~1k) is freed after boot. By then, the firewire stack
in charge of the OHCI-1394 controllers should be used instead.
See Documentation/debugging-via-ohci1394.txt for more information.
config DMA_API_DEBUG
bool "Enable debugging of DMA-API usage"
depends on HAVE_DMA_API_DEBUG
help
Enable this option to debug the use of the DMA API by device drivers.
With this option you will be able to detect common bugs in device
drivers like double-freeing of DMA mappings or freeing mappings that
were never allocated.
This also attempts to catch cases where a page owned by DMA is
accessed by the cpu in a way that could cause data corruption. For
example, this enables cow_user_page() to check that the source page is
not undergoing DMA.
This option causes a performance degradation. Use only if you want to
debug device drivers and dma interactions.
If unsure, say N.
