Subject: [PATCH v3] memblock test: Modify the obsolete description in README
Date: Fri, 29 Jul 2022 10:11:25 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220729161125.190845-1-shaoqin.huang@intel.com> (raw)

From: Shaoqin Huang <shaoqin.huang@intel.com>

The VERBOSE option in Makefile has been moved, but there still have the
description left in README. For now, we use `-v` options when running
memblock test to print information, so using the new to replace the
obsolete items.
