Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 4.14 1/2] init/Kconfig: fix LOCALVERSION_AUTO help text

[ Upstream commit 0f9c608d4a1eb852d6769d2fc5906c71c02565ae ]

It was never guaranteed to be exactly eight, but since commit
548b8b5168c9 ("scripts/setlocalversion: make git describe output more
reliable"), it has been exactly 12.
