[PATCH] 2.5.59-bk4 finish job of trimming ".o" module extension in Kconfig help texts.

[PATCH] 2.5.59-bk4 finish job of trimming ".o" module extension in Kconfig help texts.

[Steven Cole]

In 2.5.59-bk4 in the Kconfig files, most of the instances of <module>.o
have had the ".o" extension trimmed.  This change came from GertJan
Spoelman through Rusty "Trivial" Russell.

However, I had some Kconfig help additions queued up through Rusty,
which still had the ".o" extensions and which did not get trimmed.  And
for some reason the Kconfig files in arch/s390 and arch/s390x also did
not get trimmed.

Here is a patch which brings the following four files in line with the
rest of the -bk4 tree.

Pah, it was useful having the .ko extension - easy to copy all the
modules from a remote build machine back to the local machine by
just giving rsync the appropriate --include and --exclude patterns.
