Subject: [PATCH v2] staging: rts5208: Add more details to Kconfig help

The current help text is short and triggers a
warning from checkpatch.pl. This patch adds more
details to the help text which should provide better
information for whether or not to enable the driver.

In general is there an option/additional check I can run besides
checkpatch.pl to catch issues with tabs, newlines, col width, etc?
