[PATCH] mpt fusion: Improve fusion mpt drivers description

[Roland]

Since end-users may have difficulties finding the right configuration option 
for some popular LSI controllers,
this patch adds some information to drivers/message/fusion/Kconfig.

Also see http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=120967940402791&w=2

This attached patch is agaings current git.
