The Kconfig prompts for the DIBS options read:
DIBS support (DIBS) [N/m/y/?]
intra-OS shortcut with dibs loopback (DIBS_LO) [N/y/?]
Clarify the DIBS prompt by expanding the acronym.
Capitalize the first character of the DIBS_LO prompt.
While at it, join the first two lines of the DIBS help text into a real
sentence.

|
Direct Internal Buffer Sharing (DIBS) is a communication method that
|
|
uses common physical (internal) memory for synchronous direct access
|
|
into a remote buffer.
|
|
|
|
Select this option to provide the abstraction layer between
|
|
dibs devices and dibs clients like the SMC protocol.
|
|
The module name is dibs.

help
|
|
DIBS_LO enables the creation of an software-emulated dibs device
|
|
named lo which can be used for transferring data when communication
|
|
occurs within the same OS. This helps in convenient testing of
|
|
dibs clients, since dibs loopback is independent of architecture or
|
|
hardware.
