Subject: [PATCH] CONFIG_TOSHIBA Configure.help for 2.4.0

I noticed that for 2.4.0-testXX there was no help
for CONFIG_TOSHIBA, although there is for 2.2.17.

The following patch borrows the words for CONFIG_TOSHIBA
from the 2.2.17 Documentation/Configure.help.
I checked that the URL referenced below is still valid, and it is.
And CONFIG_TOSHIBA is still used in several places in
2.4.0-test11-pre6 code.

This patch applies against 2.4.0-test11-pre6.
