|PATCH] fbdev: Remove outdated advice about I2C configuration

From: Jean Delvare
Date: Fri May 08 2009 - 11:21:24 EST


The required I2C modules are now selected automatically by the means
of select statements in Kconfig, so there is no point in confusing the
users with options he/she would be supposed to enable manually.
