kconfig.debug: clarify CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO help text
The following patch adds some extra clarification to the CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO Kconfig help text. The current text is mostly a recursive definition and doesn't really say much of anything. When I first read this I thought it was going to enable extra verbosity in debug messages or something, but it is only enabling the "gcc -g" compile option in the Makefile.

If you say Y here the resulting kernel image will include
|
||||
debugging info resulting in a larger kernel image.
|
||||
This adds debug symbols to the kernel and modules (gcc -g), and
|
||||
is needed if you intend to use kernel crashdump or binary object
|
||||
tools like crash, kgdb, LKCD, gdb, etc on the kernel.
|
||||
Say Y here only if you plan to debug the kernel.
|
||||
|
||||
If unsure, say N.
