    ieee1394: more help in Kconfig
    
      - s/Device Drivers/Controllers/
      - clarify who needs pcilynx
      - don't recommend Y for raw1394; M is typically used

-         Say Y here if you want support for the raw device. This is generally
-         a good idea, so you should say Y here. The raw device enables
-         direct communication of user programs with the IEEE 1394 bus and
-         thus with the attached peripherals.
+         This option adds support for the raw1394 device file which enables
+         direct communication of user programs with the IEEE 1394 bus and thus
+         with the attached peripherals.  Almost all application programs which
+         access FireWire require this option.
