Nit, commits should be printed out like this:
06a3fab941da ("staging: gs_fpgaboot: remove checks for CONFIG_B4860G100")

Let's just remove it obviously no one is using it.
Or do you want to use it for your hardware? if so, let's fix it for
that platform.

That's an odd config option, what will that show? Shouldn't the prompt
have something to do with the board name?
Anyway, no new config options please, either lets remove it or fix it
for your hardware.
