From e3c0bc30b188c214fd1716ad13d7d99106009a2e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Fri, 23 Aug 2024 07:43:15 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: update FPE_NWFPE help text The help text is seriously outdated and predates the introduction of VFP floating point units that were available as early as some ARM926 based systems. Change the help text to reflect that this is now a legacy feature and that it will go away along with OABI support in the future.
