BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION is turning detected corruptions of list data structures from WARNings into BUGs. This can be useful to stop further corruptions or even exploitation attempts. However, the option has less to do with debugging than with hardening. With the introduction of LIST_HARDENED, it makes more sense to move it to the hardening options, where it selects LIST_HARDENED instead. Without this change, combining BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION with LIST_HARDENED alone wouldn't be possible, because DEBUG_LIST would always be selected by BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
