[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 04/19] dm: Expand and complete Kconfig in drivers/

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Fri Feb 6 05:41:35 CET 2015


Expand the help messages for each driver. Add missing Kconfig for I2C,
SPI flash and thermal.

Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg at chromium.org>

Changes in v2:
- Move subsystem Kconfigs out of drivers/core
- Split out patch to expand/complete Kconfig in drivers/
