PATCH 1/1 CONFIG_TOSHIBA Configure.help for 2.4.0-test11

I noticed that for 2.4.0-test11 there is no help
for CONFIG_TOSHIBA, although there is for 2.2.17.

The following patch borrows the words for CONFIG_TOSHIBA from the 2.2.17 Documentation/Configure.help, dropping an extraneous "the" from the first line.

This patch applies to 2.4.0-test11.

Would probably be a good idea to name the config option CONFIG_TOSHIBA_LAPTOP_MGMT or something to avoid the possibility of a conflict in case someone else special cases some other Toshiba thing.
