AK: I guess there's still some debate as to the proper minimum length of a Kconfig help section paragraph. commit 3354957a4f8b9bb4b43625232acdf0626851c82f Author: Andi Kleen Date: Mon May 24 14:33:29 2010 -0700 checkpatch: add check for too short Kconfig descriptions I've seen various new Kconfigs with rather unhelpful one liner descriptions. Add a Kconfig warning for a minimum length of the Kconfig help section. Right now I arbitarily chose 4. The exact value can be debated.
