From: Tilman Schmidt <[email protected]> The "obsolete" label on the ISDN_I4L Kconfig option is not, and has never been, accurate. It has already prompted repeated attempts to remove actively used functionality from the kernel without a working replacement. This patch removes the incorrect label and corrects the accompanying help text.
