xen/arm: Kconfig: Fix XEN_START_ADDRESS input prompt

[PATCH] xen/arm: Kconfig: Fix XEN_START_ADDRESS input prompt

Posted by Michal Orzel 1 week, 3 days ago

Remove the part about platform defined address which is not true. The
help text is correct i.e. 0xFFFFFFFF is used as default value to indicate
that user has not customized this address.
