Subject: serdev Kconfig in v4.11

Hi!

menuconfig SERIAL_DEV_BUS
        tristate "Serial device bus"
	help
	         Core support for devices connected via a         serial port.

This is pretty misleading, it would be nice to mention that this is
mostly for embedded devices, and perhaps mention "say N if you don't know".

config SERIAL_DEV_CTRL_TTYPORT
        bool "Serial device TTY port controller"

I have no idea what this is, please provide some kind of help here.

									Pavel
