[PATCH] 2.4.22-pre2 add nine Configure.help entries from 2.5

The following nine CONFIG options exist in [Cc]onfig.in files,
but do not have corresponding Configure.help entries.

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_TRIFLEX
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SC1200
CONFIG_FB_MATROX_G100A
CONFIG_ATM_HE_USE_SUNI
CONFIG_FUSION_MAX_SGE
CONFIG_DRM_I830
CONFIG_CHECKING
CONFIG_CHASSIS_LCD_LED
CONFIG_GART_IOMMU

The help texts were borrowed from the Kconfig files in 2.5, and
modified as necessary.

There are quite a few more of these, so more will come when I find
the time.

Patch is against the current 2.4 bk tree.

Steven
