	I'm checking in menuconfig where the help text is displayed.
The word "lasting" is visible up to "last". So, 3 columns are not
visible. In editor, this line is 84, may be up to 80 should be good.
You are using editor that represents Tabs as 4 spaces, that is why
it looks like it fits in 80. Open Kconfig in less. But in editor/less
does not matter because menuconfig simply ignores the leading spaces
in Kconfig and considers the text length which should be no more
than 70.
