Message-Id: <20160418190739.bea7c781e2bd35beb7a748f7@gmx.com> Date: Mon, 18 Apr 2016 19:07:39 +0300 From: Lauri Kasanen <cand@....com> To: Kalle Valo <kvalo@...eaurora.org> Cc: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@...glemail.com>, linux-wireless@...r.kernel.org, netdev@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH v3] carl9170: Clarify kconfig text The previous text was confusing, leading readers to think this driver was a duplicate, and so didn't need to be enabled. After the removal of the older staging driver, this is the only driver in mainline for these devices.
