Subject: [PATCH 4.10 017/129] powerpc/ftrace: Fix confusing help text for DISABLE_MPROFILE_KERNEL

4.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Anton Blanchard <anton@...ba.org>

commit 496e9cb5b2aa2ba303d2bbd08518f9be2219ab4b upstream.

The final paragraph of the help text is reversed. We want to enable
this option by default, and disable it if the toolchain has a working
-mprofile-kernel.

Fixes: 8c50b72a3b4f ("powerpc/ftrace: Add Kconfig & Make glue for mprofile-kernel")
