Subject: [PATCH v3 trivial 3/7] Docs: Kconfig: Clean up the radiotap
                                               documentation

Date: Fri, 8 Apr 2011 14:18:54 +0000

In particular:

  * The word `frame' was missing in `received frame',
    so it has been added.

  * The `RF' in `a RF' was both superfluous and awkward,
    so it has been removed.

As for the rest of the changes, well, I just couldn't help myself!
