Please don't mention platforms in the help for what I think of as
IP-block-vendor drivers.  The Cadence QSPI block will be reused by
others and I can see someone "needing" to patch the help text.  How
about:
	  Enable the Cadence Quad-SPI (QSPI) driver. This driver can be used to
	  access the SPI NOR flash on platforms embedding this
	  Cadence IP core.
