Subject: [PATCH][TRIVIAL] dep_tristate wants 3 arguments

The tokenring Config.in has dep_tristate statements with only two
arguments. Add the obvious third argument.

I don't see why this patch is needed.

dep_tristate statements with only three arguments (include desc. text) are just fine. There is no need for additional arguments.

dep_tristate 'blah blah' CONFIG_BLAH dep...

Further, adding CONFIG_TMS380TR dependency is complete nonsense, considering that the "if [ "$CONFIG_TMS380TR" != "n" ]" check remains.
