Subject: [PATCH RESEND] checkpatch: Make '$min_conf_desc_length' default value to 1

Make '$min_conf_desc_length' default value from 4 to 1; so can give more
relax check for Kconfig description has at least one line rather than
four lines.

User can still pass parameter "--min-conf-desc-length=X" to set more
strict check.
