Subject: [PATCH v3 11/17] crypto: Kconfig - simplify public-key entries
Date: Sat, 20 Aug 2022 13:41:45 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220820184151.1149247-12-elliott@hpe.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220820184151.1149247-1-elliott@hpe.com>
Shorten menu titles and make them consistent:
- acronym
- name
- architecture features in parenthesis
- no suffixes like "<something> algorithm", "support", or
"hardware acceleration", or "optimized"
Simplify help text descriptions, update references, and ensure that
https references are still valid.
