[PATCH] ide Kconfig fixes
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECS docu mentions everything and the kitchen sink, yet fails to list the most important/widespread (IMHO) device: Compact Flash PCMCIA adapters. This incomplete description recently caused me to deselect the ide_cs module, causing great pain soon thereafter when I realized why I had actually enabled it some years ago. Updates: - make sure to mention Compact Flash adapters - fix some random typos in ide Kconfig Signed-off-by: Andreas Mohr <andi@lisas.de> Acked-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <B.Zolnierkiewicz@elka.pw.edu.pl> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
