ARM: 9212/1: domain: Modify Kconfig help text
After the removal of set_fs() the reference to set_fs() is stale. Alter the helptext to reflect what the config option really does. Fixes: 8ac6f5d7f84b ("ARM: 9113/1: uaccess: remove set_fs() implementation") Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Russell King (Oracle) <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>

help
This option enables or disables the use of domain switching
- via the set_fs() function.
+ using the DACR (domain access control register) to protect memory
+ domains from each other. In Linux we use three domains: kernel, user
+ and IO. The domains are used to protect userspace from kernelspace
+ and to handle IO-space as a special type of memory by assigning
+ manager or client roles to running code (such as a process).
