Subject: [PATCH v3] carl9170: Clarify kconfig text
Date: Mon, 18 Apr 2016 19:07:39 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160418190739.bea7c781e2bd35beb7a748f7@gmx.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87shyiyl8a.fsf@purkki.adurom.net>

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.

v3: Remove all firmware mentions.
