Hi Linus,

I've cleaned up the Kconfig entry for the cyclades serial boards, this
makes it more obvious what the entry refers to in my mind.

I'd also ask you to remove drivers/char/README.cyclomY since it's
*way* out of date and refers to an ancient version of the driver and
MAKEDEV scripts.

Thanks,
John

your Linux box, for instance in order to become a dial-in server.
