gigaset: remove UNDOCREQ config option
Drop the kernel config option GIGASET_UNDOCREQ, permanently activating the code it controlled, as there have been no reports of problems caused by its activation but many problems caused by it being disabled. Also fix a few bad comments while we're at it. Impact: cleanup Signed-off-by: Tilman Schmidt <tilman@imap.cc> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

194 ------------------------------
195 The Gigaset M105 USB data box understands a couple of useful, but
196 undocumented USB commands. These requests are not used in normal
197 operation (for wireless access to the base), but are needed for access
198 to the M105's own configuration mode (registration to the base, baudrate
199 and line format settings, device status queries) via the gigacontr
200 utility. Their use is controlled by the kernel configuration option
201 "Support for undocumented USB requests" (CONFIG_GIGASET_UNDOCREQ). If you
202 encounter error code -ENOTTY when trying to use some features of the
203 M105, try setting that option to "y" via 'make {x,menu}config' and
204 recompiling the driver.
