(Please consider configuring spell checker in your editor setup, or run make
check as I enabled in our checkpatch.pl configuration check for typos.)

AI would reword it, feel free to use some parts or ignore:

	For some config options their presence in the config file is not enough to assure the functionality is present or enabled.
	E.g. config option may be set to 'm' but the module may not be installed or functionality may be disabled on the kernel command line.

	The kconfig library has a set of additional checks for a few config options that are used in the tests and need additional checks.
	Please rebase before adding the text (I fixed typo in include/tst_test.h).

The removal is obviously ok.
