Subject: [PATCH 00/10] x86: Kconfig cleanups and help text improvements

Hello,

There are some problems with the Kconfig files in the kernel. The help
text is frequently confusing and does not really describe what the
feature is about in a language that users could understand. Sometimes,
the help text was not updated after kernel or ecosystem changes.
References to something "future" or "old" are also usually given without
specifying any dates.

I have started improving the Kconfig files for x86. I'm sending the
first round of patches - what I have right now.

Greetings,
Mateusz
