[PATCH v2 07/10] x86/Kconfig: document CONFIG_PCI_MMCONFIG

["Mateusz Jończyk" <mat.jonczyk@o2.pl>]

This configuration option had no help text, so add it.

CONFIG_EXPERT is enabled on some distribution kernels, so people using a
distribution kernel's configuration as a starting point will see this
option.

I would like someone to confirm that PCI Express is required for
MMCONFIG support.
