[PATCH 3/3] hwmon (occ): Add more details to Kconfig help text

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Eddie James <eajames@xxxxxxxxxx>

The help text needs to spell out how the driver runs on a BMC, as it
previously seemed to indicate it ran on a POWER processor.
