The mtdoops usage instructions found in Kconfig have been incorrect
since:

    commit 2e386e4bac90554887e73d6f342e845185b33fc3
    mtd: mtdoops: refactor as a kmsg_dumper

mtdoops no longer uses a console. Now, if you build it into your kernel,
you add something like the following to your command line to select
partition X as your logging partition:

    mtdoops.mtddev=X

Anyway, it seems better to leave the documentation out of Kconfig.
