Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] drm: Improve Kconfig symbol prompt and help texts
Date: Sun,  2 Jul 2023 21:15:18 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230702191529.768248-2-javierm@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230702191529.768248-1-javierm@redhat.com>

The current text were not changed since the original Linux-2.6.12-rc2 git
import. Let's improve it and make that more aligned with the DRM/KMS docs.

Suggested-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org>
