[PATCH 41/58] ARM: 7816/1: CONFIG_KUSER_HELPERS: fix help text

[Luis Henriques <luis.henriques@canonical.com>]

3.5.7.21 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@linaro.org>

commit ac124504ecf6b20a2457d873d0728a8b991a5b0c upstream.

Commit f6f91b0d9fd9 ("ARM: allow kuser helpers to be removed from the
vector page") introduced some help text for the CONFIG_KUSER_HELPERS
option which is rather contradictory.

Let's fix that, and improve it a little.
