[PATCH v2] bridge: Elaborate a bit on dumb VGA bridges in Kconfig

From: Linus Walleij <hidden>
Date: 2018-02-28 13:02:49
Also in: dri-devel
Subsystem: drm drivers, drm drivers and misc gpu patches, drm drivers for bridge chips, the rest · Maintainers: David Airlie, Simona Vetter, Maarten Lankhorst, Maxime Ripard, Thomas Zimmermann, Andrzej Hajda, Neil Armstrong, Robert Foss, Linus Torvalds

It's better if we explain a bit that this pertains to
passive VGA DAC bridges.

Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <redacted>
---
ChangeLog v1->v2:
- Write that these bridges are non-programmable rather than
  discrete, as that reflects the name of the bridge being
  "dumb". Discrete is wrong as it has a specific electronic
  meaning, as in "non-integrated" and this is integrated.
