Subject: Fwd: [PATCH] mm: add config option to select the initial overcommit
 mode

Hi,

Using checkpatch.pl on the forwarded patch results in:

WARNING: please write a paragraph that describes the config symbol fully
#57: FILE: mm/Kconfig:451:
+       config OVERCOMMIT_GUESS

WARNING: please write a paragraph that describes the config symbol fully
#64: FILE: mm/Kconfig:458:
+       config OVERCOMMIT_ALWAYS

but there is a 'help' section for those 'config' sections.
NOTE: I followed the same indentation than the code laying just above the place where I inserted mine.

I think it is a false positive, what do you think?

Best regards,

Sebastian
